Sahl ibn-Sunbat, or Sahl i Smbatean was an Armenian prince[1][2][3][4][5] of Shaki[6] who after the fall of Mihranids became a ruler of a significant part of Caucasian Albania, which became culturally Armenian since the transfer of the capital to Partav. [7] This Armenization process was facilitated especially after the twenty districts of the Armenian principalities. [8]
Sahl initially provided refuge to Babak Khorramdin and fought with him against Arabs. However, later he assisted Afshin, the prominent Turkish general[9] under Abbasid Caliph al-Mutasim, in capturing Babak Khorramdin. In 854, Sahl was captured and imprisoned by Bugha al-Kabir al-Sharabi, the Turkish commander [10] of Abbasid Caliph al-Mutawakkil.
