Who is Shayban ibn Ahmad ibn Tulun?
Shayban ibn Ahmad ibn Tulun was the fifth and last Emir of the Tulunids in Egypt.
A son of the dynasty's founder, Ahmad ibn Tulun, he succeeded his nephew Harun ibn Khumarawayh, who was killed in a mutiny in 904 during the invasion of Egypt by the Abbasid Caliphate. After years of mismanagement, the emirate was beyond rescue - he was forced to retreat with his army to Fustat, where on 10 January 905 he surrendered unconditionally to the Abbasid commander, ending the rule of the Tulunids.
