Second Fitna

[edit]

An early inter-Muslim civil war that ensued after the death of the first Umayyad caliph Mu'awiya I in 680 CE. It was a highly complicated and multidimensional affair, that left a lasting impact on later Muslim governments and deepened sectarian divide. The core issue of the dispute was "who should rule the caliphate".

Hello @Gog the Mild: We want to focus only on the battles. Mukhtar's and Ibn Zubayr's revolts have also been excluded. AhmadLX-(Wikiposta) 21:08, 17 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the support Gog the Mild. Yes, I think Khazir is already beyond GA, although don't know if its main contributor (Al Ameer) has time to take it to FAC. AhmadLX-(Wikiposta) 21:17, 17 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
