Amîra al-mü’minîn: Zubeyde Bint Ja'far

Abstract

This article deals with Zubeyde bint Ja'far who was Harun al-Rashid’s wife and one of the most influential women of Abbasid era, Zubeyde bint Ja'far, and her place in the early Abbasid political life. Zubeyde was the only women who gave birth to a caliph from the Abbasid-Hashemite lineage. Unlike the wives of the other caliphs, she was called “amîra al-mü’minîn” and had an important effect on her husband, Harun al-Rashid and the Abbasid state administration. She had a significant place in the political life of the Abbasid with her insistence on her son Muhammad al-Amin's to be crown prince, her disapproval for the change of crown prince despite of Harun al-Rashid, her intervention in the internal war that took place between Amin and Me'mun, and her relation to the caliph Me'mun. Also Zubeyde has a significant role in the dismissing of noble family of Barmakids.
