Naja al-Kasaki
Naja al-Kasaki, or Nadja was a lieutenant serving under the Emir of
Mayyafariqin. Naja failed to take the city, however, and he soon retreated to Armenia where he managed to capture a few fortresses around Lake Van. In fall 964, Naja again failed to take Mayyafariqin, and soon resubmitted to the authority of al-Dawla. He was murdered in Mayyafariqin during the winter of 965.[4]
