مصر في عصري الطولونيين والإخشيديين: سقوط الدولة الإخشيدية

The transcript discusses the fall of the Ikhshidid state, starting with the death of the Ikhshid in Damascus in 945 AD and his burial in Jerusalem. He appointed his son Abu al-Qasim Unujur as his successor, with Kafur as the guardian due to Unujur's young age. Kafur effectively managed the state affairs in Egypt and Syria, maintaining stability and refusing the title of 'emir', preferring 'ustadh'. The Ikhshidid rule continued until the Fatimid conquest of Egypt in 969 AD, led by Jawhar al-Siqilli, which ended the Ikhshidid and Abbasid influence in the region.
