Al-Layth's representative in Fars was defeated by Abbasid forces under Mu'nis al-Khadim in August, forcing al-Layth to come to terms, and he left Fars for Kerman. Sebük-eri, however, refused to make peace with the Saffarid, and with Abbasid help he defeated and captured both him and his son; al-Mu'addal managed to escape to Kerman. The captives were sent to Baghdad; al-Layth remained in prison until his death at Raqqa in 928.
The passage describes the events surrounding the decline of Al-Layth, a prominent figure in the Saffarid dynasty, and his subsequent imprisonment and death. It highlights the power struggle between the Saffarid and Abbasid forces during this period.
