| This tribe had lived in Iraq since the first century A.D. Persia tried to keep this tribe away from Iraq, but without result. The tribe managed to get victory against Persia in the battle of Dhyqar. When the Muslims had come to conquer Iraq, Rabi’a welcomed them and takes part in that action. That tribe helped the caliph Ali in the Jammal and Sifffen wars in order to remain Iraq the center of the Islamic caliphates this tribe had felt very sad and sorrowful when the caliphate become to the Umayyad . This tribe did not give up, so this tribe did what could be done to help those who had revolted against the Umayyad. Rabi’a did that in order to get ride of the Mudriat al-sham, and favored Rabi’a side against them. That made Abid al-Malik tries to weaken Rabi’a, so he immigrated her alliance the Azdiate to Mosule where his brother was governor of the Jazira. Some parts of Rabi’a were Khawarij, but they did not believe in the ideology of them. They did that in order to get ride of the Mudhariyat al-sham, who were acused that they were the responsible of killing the prophet family. Generally, Rabi’a had resisted the Umayyad caliphate because the caliphate got close to Mudhariate al-sham and kept Rabi’a away, beside that the Umayyad caliphate gave the Mudhariate and Yamaniyyat al-sham, the privileges that made their control on Iraq, the central of Rabi’a tribes. Basra and Kufa were the importance centers of Rabi’a those two centers had the top of the difference between the two alliances, Rabi’a’ and Azid on one side and Tamim, Quis on other side. It was noted that some of the Rabi’a who were among the Arbaa or Akhmas of Kufa and Basra, were beside the Umayyad caliphate in the natural circumstances. But when the caliphate become weak, these tribes helped Rabi’a against the Umayyad caliphate. | ||
