Biography

At some point in the 860s, Ma'bad and his fellow villagers welcomed Chinese merchants while he concocted a plan to steal one of their wares and sell it for a profit between him and his cohorts. However, his plan backfired when his cohorts unknowingly stole a vase of toxic minerals similar to salammoniac that were meant for Caliph al-Musta'in's royal alchemists.[1]

When the men opened the vase, the contained gases were released into the village, resulting in most of its inhabitants either dying or abandoning their homes. Ma'bad elected to stay, warning any passerby about the "curse" that had befallen the now-abandoned village.[1]

Sometime later, the Hidden One Basim Ibn Ishaq passed by the village, and Ma'bad spoke to him about the place being plagued by an evil spirit. However, after conducting an investigation, Basim discovered the truth and informed Ma'bad of what had actually happened. Realizing that he was indirectly responsible for the tragedy that had befallen his village, Ma'bad was left alone to reflect on his actions.[1]
