Death

Both Omani authors, al-Qalhati, and Ahmad b. Abdullah al- Ruqaishi mentioned that Ibn Ibadh lived up to the time of Abd al-Malik b. Marwan to whom he wrote the famous letters. But, like other Ibadhi authorities, they did not mentioned whether he lived afterwards or took part in the revolt of Abdullah b. Yahya al-Kindi (129 H). It is unlikely that Ibn Ibadh took part in those wars without being mentioned by Ibadhi authors or other historians who reported those wars such as al-Tabari, al-Isfahani and others. It is perhaps safe to say that he died towards the end of the reign of Abd al-Malik b. Marwan, who died in 86 H, (706 CE). So Ibn Ibadh most probably died before 100 H.
