Jarudiyya (
Sahabah and the necessity of rising up against a Tyrant.[2]
History
The Jarudiyya are counted as the first branch of
Zaidiyyah. Jozef Van Ess called this sect Sorhoubiyyah.[citation needed] Two people had important roles in theoretical basics of this sect. One of them is Abu Al Jaroud as the one who established this school and the other is Abu Khalid, the one who was heir of Jaroudiyyah's teaching.[citation needed
]
Principles
What we know about this sect is only restricted to religious teaching, particularly leadership or
Shi'a
. They have two beliefs on the determination of successor by the Prophet:
- One group said that the Prophet had determined Ali as successor by revealed text or nass. Ali, in turn, designated Hasan, and the latter his brother Husayn as successor.
- Another group said that the Prophet Muhammad treated a revealed text for Ali however the Prophet determined another revealed text for Hasan and Husayn. They believe that there is no other revealed text for other Imams who were not present during the Prophet's era.
As for the knowledge of Imams, Jarudiyya believes that the Imam has innate knowledge regardless of acquiring knowledge by education. In other words, Imams have inborn knowledge from the very beginning. These beliefs are found among Yemeni Zaydis today.[3]
