In [[66]]/685, [[al-Mukhtar al-Thaqafi]] who considered himself the representative of [[Muhammad b. al-Hanafiyya]], prepared the grounds for an uprising against Umayyads to take revenge for the [[Martyrs of Karbala]]. At that time, some of the [[Shia]] of [[Kufa]] who supported al-Mukhtar, called Ibrahim to the uprising, because of his powerful personality and the memories they had from his father's loyalty toward Imam Ali (a). Ibrahim accepted their request providing that they choose him as a commander, but Shia nobles reminded him that al-Mukhtar al-Thaqafi was chosen as a commander by Muhammad b. al-Hanafiyya. Shortly afterwards, al-Mukhtar himself went to Ibrahim and gave him a letter he claimed that Muhammad b. al-Hanafiyya had written to Ibrahim. In that letter, Ibrahim was asked to help al-Mukhtar in his uprising against Umayyads. | In [[66]]/685-6, [[al-Mukhtar al-Thaqafi]] who considered himself the representative of [[Muhammad b. al-Hanafiyya]], prepared the grounds for an uprising against Umayyads to take revenge for the [[Martyrs of Karbala]].

At the beginning, Ibrahim doubted about the attribution of the letter to Ibn al-Hanafiyya because of a point in writing the letter, but since people such as [[Yazid b. Anas al-Asadi]], [[Ahmar b. Shumayt al-Bajali]], and [['Abd Allah b. Kamil al-Shakiri]] testified that they themselves saw that Muhammad b. al-Hanafiyya wrote that letter to Ibrahim, he accepted the call to the uprising and gave allegiance to al-Mukhtar. | At the beginning, Ibrahim doubted about the attribution of the letter to Ibn al-Hanafiyya because of a point in writing the letter, but since people such as [[Yazid b.
