... that medieval Muslim historians blamed al-Amir bi-Ahkam Allah for the loss of much of
Palestine to the

ALT1: ... that the assassination of al-Amir bi-Ahkam Allah both undid his attempts to concentrate power in the caliph's hands and endangered the very survival of the
Fatimid dynasty? Source: Brett, Michael (2017). The Fatimid Empire. The Edinburgh History of the Islamic Empires. Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press. ISBN 978-0-7486-4076-8. Page 261
Overall: Article improved to GA status on the 8th, 6 days before the nomination, just under the wire but still soon enough. QPQ satisfied. Article is well written and well cited. Random spot checks doesn't find anything, same with Earwig. Passages are reliably cited, though it was not easy getting a hold of the sources. I made one minor modification to the first hook, please review when able. No other issues noted, passing both hooks. 🏵️Etrius (
