	Marwan I - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Marwan's ascension pointed to a shift in the lineage of the Umayyad dynasty from descendants of Abu Sufyan to those of Hakam, both of whom were grandsons of Umayya (for whom the Umayyad dynasty is named).
		Marwan took advantage of his relationship to the caliph and was appointed governor of Medina.
		Marwan's short reign was marked by a civil war among the Umayyads as well as a war against Abdullah bin Zubayr who continued to rule over the Hejaz, Iraq, Egypt and parts of Syria.

		Marwan, being informed about the revolt of Smbat's sons and what Grigor's brother Dawit' had done to him, sent an emissary to Muslim's son Ishak--who was commander of the land of the Armenians--ordering that Dawit' be arrested and given over to a certain Oqba (Ok'ba) to be tried and judged as the latter saw fit.
		Now it happened that while Marwan still held the caliphate and was fighting with his own clan members, once again the fanatical flame of that fire [of rebellion] blazed out in the eastern areas, in the land of Khurasan.
		At the end of the sixth year of Marwan's reign, God's retribution was visited upon him as his own blood was demanded for the blood of the kinsfolk he had shed.

		Upon the death of Muawiya II in 684, civil war broke out between the two groups in Syria; the Qaysites were defeated at Marj Rahit, just outside of Damascus in 684, and a new Umayyad caliph was installed.
		Hostilities recurred under the reign of Yazid II (720-724) when he openly favored the Qays, and again under the caliphs Walid II, Yazid III, and Ibrahim (743-744).
		During the conflict between the Umayyads and the Abbasids (750), 2000 Kalbites defected to the Abbasids, possibly because of Marwan II's almost exclusive reliance on the Qaysites.
