Шаблон:Ismailism Ibrahim ibn al-Husayn ibn Abi'l-Su'ud al-Hamidi (Шаблон:Lang-ar) was the second Tayyibi Isma'ili Dāʿī al-Muṭlaq in Yemen from 1151 to his death in 1162.

Life

Ibrahim was a member of the Hamidi branch of the Banu Hamdan.Шаблон:Sfn According to the 12th-century Yemeni historian Umara ibn Abi al-Hasan al-Yamani, he was chosen as chief dāʿī by Queen Arwa al-Sulayhi already in 1132, but he was then replaced by the ruler of Aden, Saba ibn Abi'l-Su'ud ibn Zuray, possibly because Ibrahim espoused the Tayyibi sect in the schism with the Hafizis. Tayyibi sources mention none of this, however.Шаблон:Sfn

In 1138 he was chosen as chief assistant (maʾdhūn) by the first Tayyibi Dāʿī al-Muṭlaq, Dhu'ayb ibn Musa, and succeeded him upon his death in 1151, becoming thus the head of the Tayyibi community.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn He resided in Sana'a, under the protection of the city's ruler Hatim ibn Ahmad, who, although espousing the Hafizi sect, did not interfere with the Tayyibi missionary work.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn He chose Ali ibn al-Husayn ibn al-Walid (died 1159) and then his own son Hatim as maʾdhūn and designated successor.Шаблон:Sfn On his death in July 1162,Шаблон:Sfn Hatim succeeded him; his descendants monopolized the office of Dāʿī al-Muṭlaq until 1209.Шаблон:Sfn

Theological works

As leader of the Tayyibi community, he introduced the Rasāʿil Ikhwān al-Safāʾ into Tayyibi literature, and in his own works incorporated many of the teachings of Hamid al-Din al-Kirmani. The resulting synthesis combined al-Kirmani's cosmology with mythical elements, and formed the foundation of the peculiar Tayyibi system of esoteric exegesis (haqā'iq). His major work was the Kitāb kanz al-walad ("Book of the Child’s Treasure"), which provided the basis for many future Tayyibi haqā'iq authors.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn
