The reign of the 'Uqaylid Mu'tamid al-Dawla…
The reign of the 'Uqaylid Mu'tamid al-Dawla Qirwash, who had assumed control of the emirate of Mosul after many years of bitter family feuding, is troubled by the threat of Oghuz tribesmen invading his dominions from western Iran and southern Iraq, forcing him into defensive alliances with the Mazyadids, another Muslim Arab dynasty in al-Hillah, central Iraq.
The Oghuz even manage to occupy and sack Mosul in 1044, although Qirwash is able to expel them with the support of the Mazyadids.
