Abu al-'Abbas Ahmad ibn al-Khasib al-Jarjara'i (Arabic: أبو العباس أحمد بن الخصيب الجرجرائي; died c. 879)[1] was a civil officer of the Abbasid Caliphate in the mid-9th century, serving as vizier (Arabic: wazir) during the caliphate of al-Muntasir (r. 861–862). A major figure in the first year of the period known as the Anarchy at Samarra, his career at the caliphal court came to an end when he was forced into exile in mid-862.
