The emirate of Banu al-Ukhaydhir of Yamama, Hasanids; from the line of Musa al-Jawn ibn Abdallah ibn al-Hasan al-Muthanna — Ismail and his brother Muhammad al-Ukhaydhir, sons of Yusuf ibn Ibrahim ibn Musa. Ismail 'al-Saffak' rose among the Hijaz Arabs in 251, drove Mecca's governor out, plundered the caliphal households and the Ka'ba's kiswa for fifty days, starved Medina under siege until none prayed in the Prophet's mosque, and roamed the Hijaz twenty-two years; his brother Muhammad al-Ukhaydhir then founded their Yamama kingship, which lasted until the Qarmatians overwhelmed them.
