Abstract: (502 Views) |
Ḥanafiyya is recognized as its inaugural religious leader. Common perceptions of sectarianism, along with historical accounts, shed light on the relationship between these two figures, which seems to be based on a kind of cooperation. However, historical studies narrate another issue and their association fails to capture its completeness. This article delved into this issue, addressing the nature of the relationship between Muhammad Ibn Ḥanafiyya and Mukhtār Thaqafi. It seems that the approach of Muhammad Ibn Ḥanafiyya was initially a brief association with Mukhtār, but later, significant confrontations between Ibn Ḥanafiyya and Mukhtār took place. Documentary and historical evidence revealed that following the establishment of Mukhtār's governance, Muhammad Ibn Ḥanafiyya adopted a critical stance towards him, withdrawing his support and openly expressing disapproval even after Mukhtār's death.
