Sallar was one of youngest sons of Yazid III. In 1049, Sallar rebelled against his nephew Ali III; he repelled him from Shamakhi, and thereafter had him captured and killed near Baylaqan. In 1053, Sallar captured the Malu castle from pagans and then had it rebuilt.[1] He later died on 20 February 1063, and was succeeded by his son Fariburz I.
