The Abbasids were members of the <a href="/wiki/Banu_Hashim" title="Banu Hashim">Hashim</a> clan, rivals of the Umayyads, but the word "Hashimiyya" seems to refer specifically to Abu Hashim, a grandson of Ali and son of Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyya. According to certain traditions, Abu Hashim died in 717 in Humeima in the house of Muhammad ibn Ali, the head of the Abbasid family, and before dying named Muhammad ibn Ali as his successor. This tradition allowed the Abbasids to rally the supporters of the failed revolt of <a href="/wiki/Mukhtar" title="Mukhtar">Mukhtar</a>, who had represented themselves as the supporters of Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyya. Beginning around 719, Hashimiyya missions began to seek adherents in Khurasan. Their campaign was framed as one of proselytism (<a href="/wiki/Dawah" title="Dawah">dawah</a>). They sought support for a "member of the family" of Muhammad, without making explicit mention of the Abbasids. These missions met with success both among Arabs and non-Arabs (<a href="/wiki/Mawali" class="mw-redirect" title="Mawali">mawali</a>), although the latter may have played a particularly important role in the growth of the movement. Around 746, <a href="/wiki/Abu_Muslim" title="Abu Muslim">Abu Muslim</a> assumed leadership of the Hashimiyya in Khurasan. In 747, he successfully initiated an open revolt against Umayyad rule, which was carried out under the sign of the <a href="/wiki/Black_Standard" title="Black Standard">black flag</a>. He soon established control of Khurasan, expelling its Umayyad governor, <a href="/wiki/Nasr_ibn_Sayyar" title="Nasr ibn Sayyar">Nasr ibn Sayyar</a>, and dispatched an army westwards. Kufa fell to the Hashimiyya in 749, the last Umayyad stronghold in Iraq, <a href="/wiki/Wasit" title="Wasit">Wasit</a>, was <a href="/wiki/Siege_of_Wasit" title="Siege of Wasit">placed under siege</a>, and in November of the same year <a href="/wiki/As-Saffah" class="mw-redirect" title="As-Saffah">Abul Abbas as-Saffah</a> was recognized as the new caliph in the mosque at Kufa.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] At this point Marwan mobilized his troops from Harran and advanced toward Iraq. In January 750 the two forces met in the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_the_Zab" title="Battle of the Zab">Battle of the Zab</a>, and the Umayyads were defeated.

The Umayyad princes <a href="/wiki/Abu_Muhammad_al-Sufyani" title="Abu Muhammad al-Sufyani">Abu Muhammad al-Sufyani</a>, al-Abbas ibn Muhammad, and Hashim ibn Yazid launched revolts in Syria and the Islamic–Byzantine frontier around late 750, but they were defeated.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTECobb200147–50-169">[167]</a> The victors desecrated the tombs of the Umayyads in Syria, sparing only that of <a href="/wiki/Umar_II" class="mw-redirect" title="Umar II">Umar II</a>, and most of the remaining members of the Umayyad family were tracked down and killed. When Abbasids declared amnesty for members of the Umayyad family, eighty gathered to receive pardons, and all were massacred. One grandson of Hisham, <a href="/wiki/Abd_al-Rahman_I" title="Abd al-Rahman I">Abd al-Rahman I</a>, survived, escaped across North Africa, and established an emirate in <a href="/wiki/Moors" title="Moors">Moorish</a> <a href="/wiki/Iberian_Peninsula" title="Iberian Peninsula">Iberia</a> (<a href="/wiki/Al-Andalus" title="Al-Andalus">Al-Andalus</a>).

During the Umayyad period, mass conversions brought Persians, Berbers, Copts, and Aramaic to Islam. These mawalis (clients) were often better educated and more civilised than their Arab overlords. The new converts, on the basis of equality of all Muslims, transformed the political landscape.

Each province had a governor appointed by the caliph. The governor was in charge of the religious officials, army leaders, police, and civil administrators in his province. Local expenses were paid for by taxes coming from that province, with the remainder each year being sent to the central government in Damascus. As the central power of the Umayyad rulers waned in the later years of the dynasty, some governors neglected to send the extra tax revenue to Damascus and created great personal fortunes.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEOchsenwald200457-174">[172]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Government_workers">Government workers</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Umayyad_Caliphate&action=edit&section=20" title="Edit section: Government workers">edit</a>]</div> As the empire grew, the number of qualified Arab workers was too small to keep up with the rapid expansion of the empire.

It used to make and preserve a copy of each official document before sealing and despatching the original to its destination. Thus in the course of time a state archive developed in Damascus by the Umayyads under Abd al-Malik. This department survived till the middle of the Abbasid period. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Diwan_al-Barid">Diwan al-Barid</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Umayyad_Caliphate&action=edit&section=27" title="Edit section: Diwan al-Barid">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Barid" title="Barid">Barid</a></div> Mu'awiyah introduced the postal service, Abd al-Malik extended it throughout his empire, and Walid made full use of it. Umar bin Abdul-Aziz developed it further by building caravanserais at stages along the Khurasan highway. Relays of horses were used for the conveyance of dispatches between the caliph and his agents and officials posted in the provinces. The main highways were divided into stages of 12 miles (19 km) each and each stage had horses, donkeys, or camels ready to carry the post. Primarily the service met the needs of Government officials, but travellers and their important dispatches were also benefited by the system. The postal carriages were also used for the swift transport of troops. They were able to carry fifty to a hundred men at a time. Under Governor Yusuf bin Umar, the postal department of Iraq costs 4,000,000 dirhams a year. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Diwan_al-Qudat">Diwan al-Qudat</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Umayyad_Caliphate&action=edit&section=28" title="Edit section: Diwan al-Qudat">edit</a>]</div> In the early period of Islam, justice was administered by Muhammad and the orthodox caliphs in person. After the expansion of the Islamic State, Umar al-Faruq had to separate the judiciary from the general administration and appointed the first qadi in Egypt as early as AD 643/23 AH. After 661, a series of judges served in Egypt during the caliphates of Hisham and Walid II. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Diwan_al-Jund">Diwan al-Jund</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Umayyad_Caliphate&action=edit&section=29" title="Edit section: Diwan al-Jund">edit</a>]</div> The Diwan of Umar, assigning annuities to all Arabs and to the Muslim soldiers of other races, underwent a change in the hands of the Umayyads. The Umayyads meddled with the register and the recipients regarded pensions as the subsistence allowance even without being in active service. Hisham reformed it and paid only to those who participated in the battle. On the pattern of the Byzantine system, the Umayyads reformed their army organization in general and divided it into five corps: the centre, two wings, vanguards, and rearguards, following the same formation while on the march or on a battlefield. Marwan II (740–50) abandoned the old division and introduced the Kurdus (cohort), a small compact body. The Umayyad troops were divided into three divisions: infantry, cavalry, and artillery. Arab troops were dressed and armed in Greek fashion. The Umayyad cavalry used plain and round saddles. The artillery used the arradah (ballista), the manjaniq (mangonel), and the dabbabah or kabsh (battering ram). The heavy engines, siege machines, and baggage were carried on camels behind the army. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Social_organization">Social organization</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Umayyad_Caliphate&action=edit&section=30" title="Edit section: Social organization">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Humeima_ivory.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6f/Humeima_ivory.jpg/220px-Humeima_ivory.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="252" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/6f/Humeima_ivory.jpg 1.5x" data-file-width="328" data-file-height="376" /></a><figcaption>Ivory (circa 8th century) discovered in the Abbasid homestead in Humeima, <a href="/wiki/Jordan" title="Jordan">Jordan</a>.

The Arab Muslims held themselves in higher esteem than Muslim non-Arabs and generally did not mix with other Muslims. As Islam spread, more and more of the Muslim population consisted of non-Arabs. This caused social unrest, as the new converts were not given the same rights as Muslim Arabs. Also, as conversions increased, tax revenues (peasant tax) from non-Muslims decreased to dangerous lows.

Despite some notable exceptions, the Umayyads tended to favor the rights of the old Arab families, and in particular their own, over those of newly converted Muslims (mawali). Therefore, they held to a less universalist conception of Islam than did many of their rivals. As G.R. Hawting has written, "Islam was in fact regarded as the property of the conquering aristocracy."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHawting20004-203">[200]</a> During the period of the Umayyads, Arabic became the administrative language and the process of <a href="/wiki/Arabization" title="Arabization">Arabization</a> was initiated in the Levant, Mesopotamia, North Africa, and Iberia.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTELapidus201450-204">[201]</a> State documents and currency were issued in Arabic. Mass conversions also created a growing population of Muslims in the territory of the caliphate. According to one common view, the Umayyads transformed the caliphate from a religious institution (during the <a href="/wiki/Rashidun" title="Rashidun">Rashidun caliphate</a>) to a dynastic one.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEPrevité-Orton1971236-199">[196]</a> However, the Umayyad caliphs do seem to have understood themselves as the representatives of God on earth, and to have been responsible for the "definition and elaboration of God's ordinances, or in other words the definition or elaboration of Islamic law."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTECroneHinds198643-205">[202]</a> The Umayyads have met with a largely negative reception from later Islamic historians, who have accused them of promoting a kingship (mulk, a term with connotations of tyranny) instead of a true caliphate (khilafa). In this respect it is notable that the Umayyad caliphs referred to themselves not as khalifat rasul Allah ("successor of the messenger of God", the title preferred by the tradition), but rather as khalifat Allah ("deputy of God"). The distinction seems to indicate that the Umayyads "regarded themselves as God's representatives at the head of the community and saw no need to share their religious power with, or delegate it to, the emergent class of religious scholars."<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHawting200013-206">[203]</a> In fact, it was precisely this class of scholars, based largely in Iraq, that was responsible for collecting and recording the traditions that form the primary source material for the history of the Umayyad period. In <a href="/wiki/Historiography_of_early_Islam" title="Historiography of early Islam">reconstructing this history</a>, therefore, it is necessary to rely mainly on sources, such as the histories of <a href="/wiki/Muhammad_ibn_Jarir_al-Tabari" class="mw-redirect" title="Muhammad ibn Jarir al-Tabari">Tabari</a> and <a href="/wiki/Ahmad_ibn_Yahya_al-Baladhuri" class="mw-redirect" title="Ahmad ibn Yahya al-Baladhuri">Baladhuri</a>, that were written in the Abbasid court at <a href="/wiki/Baghdad" title="Baghdad">Baghdad</a>.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] The book Al Muwatta, by Imam Malik, was written in the early Abbasid period in Medina. It does not contain any anti-Umayyad content because it was more concerned with what the Quran and what Muhammad said and was not a history book on the Umayyads.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] Even the earliest pro-Shia accounts of al-Masudi are more balanced. Al-Masudi's Ibn Hisham is the earliest Shia account of Muawiyah. He recounted that Muawiyah spent a great deal of time in prayer, in spite of the burden of managing a large empire.<a href="#cite_note-207">[204]</a> After killing off most of the Umayyads and destroying the graves of the Umayyad rulers apart from <a href="/wiki/Muawiya_II" class="mw-redirect" title="Muawiya II">Muawiyah</a> and <a href="/wiki/Umar_II" class="mw-redirect" title="Umar II">Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz</a>, the history books were written during the later Abbasid period are more anti-Umayyad.<a href="#cite_note-208">[205]</a> The books written later in the Abbasid period in Iran are more anti-Umayyad.
