أروى بنت أحمد
There was a sijill (royal order) (524 AH) of al-Amir to Yemen (testimony of al- Khattab available) announcing birth of the heir, al-Tayyib, in the court of al-Mallika al-Sayyida (Arwa al-Sulayhi) by 'Egyptian envoy' Muhammad b. Haydara. On the occasion of the commemoration of the murdered Imam, the envoy said: "...appointed by his (Amir) nass...al-Imam al-Tayyib...it is in vein that mislead people think it will diminish by your (Amir) death.." Later in 526 AH, Abd al Majid in his official correspondence to Queen Arwa al-Sulayhi declared himself Amir al- Mumineen (leader) in place of Wali-e-ahd (representative) al-Muslimeen. According to this Queen al-Hurrah Arwa al-Sulayhi found it a betrayal as per the earlier sijill of Imam al Amir and of Abd al Majid himself declaring 'Abd al Majid a Wali of the Imam'.
