- The Battle of Basra was a major engagement of the Zanj Rebellion, fought on September 7–10, 871. Zanj rebels and allied Arab tribesmen, led by and , launched a coordinated attack against the city of Basra. The city’s defenders, consisting of a small contingent of Abbasid regular troops and local Basran militia, were quickly overwhelmed, and the Zanj were able to enter the city, after which they massacred its inhabitants and engaged in a several-day period of looting. The historian Alexandre Popovic has called the battle "the most outstanding event of this whole period if not of the entire [Zanj] revolt." The total loss of life and damage to the city is unknown, but Muslim historians have generally described the incident as being extremely destructive. Following the battle, the Abbasid government intensified its efforts to suppress the Zanj, and in the following year the caliphal regent Abu Ahmad personally went on campaign against the rebels. (en)

- "Go forth, you nobles, light and heavy, against the vile slaves ;
They managed well their enterprise whilst you were sleeping – shame, shame upon the sleep of the sleepers!
Make true the belief of brothers who had expectations of you, and put their hopes in you in all vicissitudes.
Exact vengeance for them, for that will be to them as the restoring of their spirits to their bodies." (en)
