| Additional information |
The Wajihids were a minor Iranian dynasty governing the Kirman region under nominal Samanid suzerainty during the mid-tenth century. Muhammad b. Yusuf held power in a politically precarious position — the Samanids to the north and the Buyids pressing from the west left regional governors with limited autonomy and shorter tenures than their coin output might suggest.
