The term ʿamīd was also used in compound titles. Under the Buyids, the forms ʿamīd al-dawla, ʿamīd al-dīn and ʿamīd al-juyūsh are attested. Under the Ghaznavids, the ṣāḥib al-barīd (head of the postal service) held the title ʿamīd al-mulk. This title was used as a laqab by the vizier al-Kundurī. The title ʿamīd declined in the 12th century and was not used after the fall of Baghdad to the Mongols in 1258. (en)
