Abstract
This study discusses the considerable efforts carried out by Volga Bulgaria in its endeavour to establish resolute relations with Baghdad under the Abbasid Caliphate. The study employs a historical approach that involves systematic organization and assessment of data from past writings such as records from Ibn Fadlan. Data collection involved the qualitative method including library research while data were analysed through text and document analysis comparison as well as induction and deduction. The objective of this study is to effectuate an Islamic state. The study found that the relations between Baghdad and Volga Bulgaria had a positive impact on the development of Volga Bulgaria as an Islamic state and propelled a momentum for it to attain its zenith in the history of Islam in Central Asia. However, this high point did not last as a result of a series of attacks by the Mongols in the early 1230 A.C. which ultimately led to its conquest by former in 1236.
