Abstract :

Ali Ibn Abi Talib was appointed as the fourth caliph after the Muslim uprising against the third caliph Uthman by the people of the Islamic community. During this election, the opposition front immediately stood in front of it. The alliance of Quraysh nobles was at the head of these opponents. In this front, the role of Abdullah bin Zubair, along with his father and his father's partner, Talha and his aunt Aisha, is very evident. How was Abdullah Ibn Zubair in confronting the caliphate of Imam Ali (a.s.)? Proposed hypothesis: Abdullah Ibn Zubair stood up against the political and economic plan of Imam Ali (AS) based on his stubbornness, jealousy, obstinacy, ambition and power-seeking, but he failed in this matter. The result of the article: Abdullah Ibn Zubayr, as an ambitious person who sought power and reached the top of the caliphate pyramid, put all his efforts into creating a united front to overthrow Caliph Ali Ibn Abi Talib from power, and wage a war against Imam arranged. He was defeated in this war and failed in his goals
