زمزم
By the mid 10th century, Multan had come under the influence of the Qarmatians. The Qarmatians had been expelled from Egypt and Iraq following their defeat at the hands of the Abbasids there. Qarmatians zealots had famously sacked Mecca, and outraged the Muslim world with their theft and ransom of the Kaaba's Black Stone, and desecration of the Zamzam Well with corpses during the Hajj season of 930 CE. They wrested control of the city from the pro-Abbasid Amirate of Banu Munabbih, and established the Amirate of Multan, and pledged allegiance to the Fatimid Dynasty based in Cairo.
