It was the local Persian caliph that did it, with the specific endorsement of *his* Caliph.

What’s the only way to get to the leader of an empire?

Uh, kill him? If they killed the caliph, so what, he deserved it for murdering the ambassador. It's the killing of everyone that I have a problem with. I'm not Persian or Mongol, btw, in case anyone was wondering....
