Upon the death of Idris II, al-Qasim's oldest brother Muhammad succeeded to the throne, but divided much of the country among his younger brothers. Thus al-Qasim received rule over Tangier and Basra in the north. When another brother, Isa, rose in revolt, al-Qasim refused to support Muhammad, and was attacked and deprived of his domains by another brother, Umar. Al-Qasim outlived his brother and the latter's sons, and in the reign of his great-nephew, Yahya II (), his family received governance of the western half of the Idrisid capital, Fes, along with the eastern frontier provinces of the Berber tribes of Luwata and Kutama. Towards the end of the 9th century, the family of al-Qasim remained in control of northern Morocco (Tangier, Basra, Ceuta), and his son, Yahya III, ruled over Fes for a while afte ...

Abd Al-Razzaq
ʻAbd al-Razzāq (ALA-LC romanization of ) is a male Muslim given name, and in modern usage, surname. It is built from the Arabic words '' ʻabd'' and ''al-Razzāq'', one of the names of God in the Qur'an, which give rise to the Muslim theophoric names. It means "servant of the all-provider". Because the letter ''r'' is a sun letter, the letter ''l'' of the ''al-'' is assimilated to it. Thus although the name is written in Arabic with letters corresponding to ''Abd al-Razzaq'', the usual pronunciation corresponds to ''Abd ar-Razzaq''. Alternative renderings include ''‘Abd ar-Razzaq'', ''Abdul Razzaq'', ''Abdur Razaq'', ''Abdul Razzak'' and others, all subject to variable spacing and hyphenation. It may refer to: Given name Afghan *Abdul Razaq (Guantanamo detainee 356) (born 1971) * Abdul Razzaq (Guantanamo detainee 923) * Abdul Razak (Guantanamo detainee 1043) *Abdur Razzaq (Taliban official) (born 1958), politician * Abdul Razaq (cricketer) (born 2000), cricketer Alger ...

Kharijite
The Kharijites (, singular ) were an Islamic sect which emerged during the First Fitna (656–661). The first Kharijites were supporters of Ali who rebelled against his acceptance of arbitration talks to settle the conflict with his challenger, Mu'awiya, at the Battle of Siffin in 657. They asserted that "judgment belongs to God alone", which became their motto, and that rebels such as Mu'awiya had to be fought and overcome according to Qur'anic injunctions. Ali defeated the Kharijites at the Battle of Nahrawan in 658, but their insurrection continued. Ali was assassinated in 661 by a Kharijite dissident seeking revenge for the defeat at Nahrawan. After Mu'awiya established the Umayyad Caliphate in 661, his governors kept the Kharijites in check. The power vacuum caused by the Second Fitna (680–692) allowed for the resumption of the Kharijites' anti-government rebellion, and the Kharijite factions of the Azariqa and Najdat came to control large areas in Persia and Arabi ...

Yahya Ibn Al-Qasim
Yahya III ibn al-Qasim () was an Idrisid ruler of Morocco. Life Yahya was the son of al-Qasim, a younger son of the second Idrisid ruler of Morocco, Idris II (). The family of al-Qasim controlled northern Morocco, with the cities of Tangier, Basra and Ceuta, and for a time in the 860s even the western half of the Idrisid capital, Fes. Known by the sobriquet al-Miqdam, Yahya was called upon for assistance by the inhabitants of the Qaraqiyyin quarter of Fes when the town was occupied by the Kharijite rebel Abd al-Razzaq. Yahya drove the rebels away, and is traditionally accounted as the eighth Idrisid emir, until his death in 905. Modern historians on the other hand consider that his rule over Fes is unlikely to have lasted long: his uncle, Dawud, appears to have ruled the city in 877, while numismatic Numismatics is the study or collection of currency, including coins, tokens, paper money, medals, and related objects.

Kutama
The Kutama (Berber: ''Ikutamen''; ) were a Berber tribe in northern Algeria classified among the Berber confederation of the Bavares.

The Kutama remained one of the mainstays of the Fatimid army until well into the 11th century.

Luwata
The Laguatan () was a Berber clan that inhabited the Cyrenaica area during the Roman period. They have been described as primarily raiders and nomadic, but others consider them a settled group who also raided. The Laguatan emerged in the late 3rd century, when the first groups started a westward migration from their original homes in the Libyan Desert. Under the label of Austuriani (probably reflecting a then-dominant sub-tribe) they are recorded as raiding the Cyrenaica and Tripolitania in the 4th century, and in the 520s, under their leader Cabaon, they scored a major victory over the Vandals, gaining effective independence from them. In the 540s, they played a major role in the tribal wars against the Byzantines, until finally defeated by John Troglita. Procopius of Caesarea (''Vandalic War'' II.21.2 & II.28.47) calls them the Leuathae (), while Flavius Cresconius Corippus calls them Ilaguas and Laguantan.
