Abu’l-Qāsim ʿAbdallāh ibn Ali (Arabic: أبو القاسم عبد الله بن علي; 908 – September/October 949), better known by his regnal name al-Mustakfī bi’llāh (Arabic: المستكفي بالله, lit. 'Desirous of Being Satisfied with God Alone') was the Abbasid caliph in Baghdad from 944 to 946. Al-Mustakfi was a younger son of Caliph al-Muktafi, and hence a rival to the line of Caliph al-Muqtadir that reigned in 908–944, a period during which the Abbasid Caliphate nearly collapsed, and caliphs became puppets at the hands of rival warlords. Al-Mustakfi himself was installed on the throne by Tuzun, a Turkish general who deposed and blinded the previous caliph, al-Muttaqi. Read more on Wikipedia
