ʿAbd Allāh ibn Ḥanẓala ibn Abī ʿĀmir al-Anṣārī (625/26 – August 683) was the leader of the Ansar faction of Medina during the city’s revolt against Caliph Yazid I in 682–683. He was killed when he led his forces to confront Yazid’s expeditionary army at the Battle of al-Harrah in August 683.

Life

Abd Allah was the son of Hanzala ibn Abi ‘Amir, a sahaba (companion) of the Islamic prophet Muhammad who had been slain at the Battle of Uhud in 625.[1] Abd Allah was born after his father’s death.[1] He became known as “Ibn al-Ghasīl” after his father’s nickname “al-Ghasīl al-Malāʾika”.[1]

When Yazid I succeeded his father Muawiya I as caliph, the move was opposed by the Ansar.[1] The latter were the early supporters of Muhammad from Medina and this group had included Abd Allah’s father.[1] Abd Allah himself was part of a delegation from Medina sent by the Umayyad governor of the city, Uthman ibn Muhammad, to reconcile with Yazid in the Umayyad capital Damascus.[1] Despite the warm reception, the delegation left Damascus with the conviction that Yazid was unfit to be caliph.[1] Abd Allah was the most vocal in his criticism and was chosen by the Ansar to be their leader.[1] Meanwhile, the Quraysh of Medina, who also opposed Yazid, chose Abd Allah ibn Muti as the leader of their faction.[1]

Together, the Ansar and Quraysh drove out the Umayyads from Medina, prompting Yazid to dispatch an army led by Muslim ibn Uqba to bring the city into submission.[1] The army, composed of the Arab tribesmen of Syria, took up strategic positions in the Harrah just east of Medina where they met the Ansar led by Abd Allah.[1] During the ensuing battle, the faction of Medina was defeated and Abd Allah was slain.[1] According to historians Ch. Pellat and K. V. Zettersteen, Abd Allah had fought with “remarkable bravery ... but finally fell under the blows of the Syrians”.[1] His body was subsequently decapitated and his head was given to Ibn Uqba.[1] Meanwhile, the two soldiers credited with his death were rewarded by Yazid.[1]
