Abstract

This study examines human rights violations in the era of Seljuk control / the Abbasid caliphs as a model (447-590 AH / 1055-1193 AD). From the first day of the entry of the Seljuks and their military forces into Iraq in general، and to Baghdad and the seat of the Abbasid Caliphate in particular، in the year 447 AH / 1055 AD، the Abbasid caliphs were exposed to numerous violations and abuses. From the plundering of the home of the Caliphate، the exposure of people’s property to looting and plundering، and the soldiers descending on people’s homes and expelling their inhabitants. They also looted the money that people had hidden in the tombs of the caliphs، believing that the Seljuks would refrain from committing crimes there due to its status among Muslims، in addition to other attacks، and in front of the eyes of Sultan Tughrul Bey، without preventing the soldiers and their followers from carrying out these attacks، wphich embarrassed the Abbasid Caliph after the complaints of the people who were attacked continued. whose rights had been violated and their properties had been seized to the Caliph Al-Qa'im bi-Amr Allah، and human rights violations continued every time the Seljuks and their followers entered Baghdad. However، the Abbasid caliphs and the general public did not stand idly by in the face of these violations. They often confronted them despite the military ower of the Seljuks at the time، and this is what we will present in the course of the research.
