(417 words)

Author(s): Ghūl, M.A.
, a family of Bā ʿAlawī sayyids of Tarīm in Ḥaḍramawt descended from al-Faḳīh Muḥammad b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, called al-asḳaʿ , a prominent scholar who, after studying in his native Tarīm, Aden, Zabīd, Mecca and Medina, settled in Tarīm, where he died in 917/1512. A kind of historical work by him was used as a source of the Taʾrīk̲h̲ of Bā Faḳīh al-S̲h̲iḥrī, where it is referred to as K̲h̲aṭṭ cf. R. B. Serjeant in BSOAS, xxv (1962), 246. His great ancestor was Muḥammad b. ʿAlī b. Muḥammad ¶ ṣāḥib Mirbāṭ , commonly called al-ustād̲h̲ al-aʿẓam wa ’l-faḳīh al-muḳaddam (d. 653/1255). The Bal Faḳīh sayyids…

Faḳīh, Bā

Author(s): Ghūl, M.A.
, a family of Bā ʿAlawī sayyids of Tarīm in Ḥaḍramawt descended from Muḥammad b. ʿAlī (d. 862/1458), called mawlā ʿAydīd or ṣāḥib ʿ Aydīd , after ʿAydīd, now a suburb of Tarīm, to which he moved from Tarīm. His father, ʿAlī b. Muḥammad (d. 838/1434) was called ṣāḥib al-ḥawṭa , after an estate he had near Tarīm which he developed as a plantation and which became a sacrosanct enclosure ( ḥawṭa ). The name Bā Faḳīh apparently refers to ṣāḥib al-ḥawṭa’s great-grandfather, al-Faḳīh Aḥmad b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. ʿAlī b. Muḥammad (d. 726/1326), whose great-grandfather was Muḥammad ṣaḥib Mirbāt

Faḍl, Bā

Author(s): Ghūl, M.A.
, a family of mas̲h̲āyik̲h̲ of Tarīm in Ḥaḍramawt claiming descent from the Saʿd al-ʿas̲h̲ira clan of Mad̲h̲ḥid̲j̲. The name Bā Faḍl seems to derive from an ancestor called al-faḳīh Faḍl b. Muḥammad b. ʿAbd al-Karīm b. Muḥammad, whose genealogy cannot be traced beyond that. They seem to have had supreme authority in religious matters in ¶ Tarīm until superseded by the Bā ʿAlawī sayyid s around the 9th/15th century. They have long been prominent as ṣūfī s and faḳīh s, jurists. In the 10-11th/16th-17th centuries one branch existed in Aden. The most famou…

, famille de sayyids des Bā ʿAlawī de Tarīm, au Ḥaḍramawt, descendant de Muḥ. b. ʿAlī (m. 862/1458) qui est appelé Mawlā ʿAydīd ou Ṣāḥib ʿAydīd, du nom d’un faubourg de Tarīm où il s’était établi. Son père, ʿAlī b. Muḥ. (m. 838/1434), était appelé Ṣāḥib al-Ḥawṭa, du nom d’une propriété qu’il possédait près de Tarīm et dont il avait fait une plantation devenue un enclos sacro-saint ( ḥawṭa). Le nom de Bā Faḳīh paraît se rapporter à l’arrière-grand-père de Ṣāḥib al-Ḥawṭa, al-Faḳīh Aḥmad b. ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. ʿAlī b. Muḥ. (m. 726/1326), dont l’arrière-grand-père éta…

Faḍl, Bā

(515 words)

Author(s): Ghūl, M. A.
, famille de mas̲h̲āyik̲h̲ de Tarīm, au Ḥaḍramawt, qui prétend descendre du clan mad̲h̲ḥid̲j̲ite de Saʿd al-ʿAs̲h̲īra. Le nom de Bā Faḍl paraît provenir d’un ancêtre appelé al-Faḳīh Faḍl b. Muḥ. b. ʿAbd al-Karīm b. Muḥ., dont on ne peut faire remonter plus haut la généalogie. Les Bā Faḍl semblent avoir détenu l’autorité religieuse suprême à Tarīm jusqu’au jour où ils furent supplantés par les sayyids Bā ʿAlawī, vers le IXe/XVe siècle, mais ils conservèrent longtemps une certaine importance comme Ṣufīs et juristes. Au Xe-XIe/XVIe--XVIIe s., une branche de ia famille existait à A…
