Sarbedaran
The Sarbedaran ( Persian سربداران, DMG Sarbedārān , 'the hanged', plural of Persian سربدار, DMG Sarbedār ) was a social revolutionary movement, between about 1337 and 1386 in the western Khorasan ruled.
While the Ilkhan empire was in decline, Abd ar-Razzaq ibn Fadl Allah ( ʿAbd ar-Razzāq b. Faḍl Allāh ) led a revolt of the local population against Mongolian rule from 1332. The rebels, who called themselves Sarbedaran , established a rule around Baihaq / Sabzawar with socialist elements and were close to Shiite Islam , to which only their last leader officially confessed. In 1353 they overthrew and killed the Ilkhan Toqa (i) -Temür, who had ruled West Chorasan and Gurgan until then . In Ostchorasan ruled to be the Kurt Dynasty .
Sabzawar developed into the center of a radical messianic dervish movement founded by Abd ar-Razzaq . The leaders of the Sarbedaran were elected and usually died violently soon. After a decade of turmoil and disputes, only Hadscha Ali ibn Muayyad ( Ḫ v āǧa ʿAlī b. Muʾayyad , ruled 1362-1376 and again 1379-1386) succeeded in stabilizing the situation again, but the Sarbedaran rule immediately after his death from Timurid commanders ended.
