the ibadhiyah.
To avoid needless repetition, I refer the reader to Appendix A
for an account of the Khawdrij, of which sect the Ibddhiyah are
an offshoot. The derivation of the name from 'Abdallah-bin-
Tbadh, et-Temimy, 1 who lived during the reign of the Khalifah
Marwan, a .n. 127-132= a.d . 744-749, is affirmed by the following
authorities:—
Under the heading of Omdn, /^ak^rya-bin-Muhammad-biu-
Mahrnud, generally quoted as " el-Kazwiny," writes :—" The
Khawarij Ibadhiyah prevail in that country up to our time,
[13th century ?], and the members of no other sect are to be
found there, except such as are foreigners. They are the followers
of 'Abdallah-bin-Ibadh, who appeared in the time of Marwan-
bin-Muhammad, the last of the Benu-Omeyyah." Kosmographie,

ascribe their origin to Temim—born about a.d . 120—the son of Murr, a
descendant of Mudhar through Tabikhah, and therefore of the race 'of
'Adnan and Ma'add. They were dispersed over the north-east of Nejd,
from the Syrian desert to the borders of el-YamAmah. Their territory
comprised the vast desert called Dahnd, and extended on the south
between the confines of el-Yamamah and el-Bahrein. Several important
tribes claim to be the issue of Temtin, among which is the Benu-Mukais,
subdivided into the Benu-Minsar and the Benu-Sarih. From the latter
sprang 'Abdallah-bin-Ibadh, the chief of the heretical Muslims styled
Ibddhiyah, and also 'Abdallah-bin-Suffar, the head of the es-Sufriyyah
sect. See Caussin de Perceval's Histoire dea Arahes, vol. ii. pp. 411-2
