He engineered the annexation of Murcia to the kingdom of Seville, and convinced al-Mutamid to name him as its governor. He soon proclaimed himself its king and cut off relations with al-Mutamid. He soon fell from power, was captured in an ambush, and was imprisoned in Seville. He and al-Mutamid were reconciled, but not for long; shortly after his release from the dungeon, they fell out again, and the king killed the poet with his own hands. REFERENCES
