Ibn Hanafiyya always had a peaceful political orientation through his life. Following such a policy, he stayed in [[Medina]] with his brother, [[Imam al-Hassan (a)]] , after the martyrdom of the [[Commander of the Faithful (a)]], and also pledged allegiance to [[Yazid]] as the crown prince of [[Mu'awiya]], and did not oppose him when he came to rule.

He also had a peaceful relationship with the following caliphs. For example he traveled to [[Damascus]] in 76\695 and made a visit to [['Abd ul-malik Marwan]]. Some believe it was as a result of Ibn Zubayr's abuse, for [['Abd Allah b. Zubayr]] had imprisoned him, until the forces of [[Mukhtar al-Thaqafi]] rescued him.

As Mukhtar got killed, Ibn Zubayr again asked for his [[allegiance]], planning to assail him and his family in case of his refusal. Meanwhile, he received a letter from [['Abd ul-malik b. Marwan]], who had of late become the caliph, in which he was asked to go to [[Damascus]]. Muhammad and his companions then, got out of the valley, and set off for Damascus. But having arrived in [[Madyan]], Ibn Hanafiyya found out about 'Abd ul-malik's disloyalty to 'Amr b. Sa'id (a companion of Ibn Hanafiyya). Therefore he landed in [[Ayla]], a port on the border of Damascus, and got back to [[Mecca]], where he resided in [[Abu Talib Valley]], and then traveled to [[Ta'if]]. He remained there until Ibn Zubayr was surrounded in Mecca by [[Hajjaj]], and after that he went back to Abu Talib Valley. He rejected Hajjaj's request for allegiance to 'Abd ul-malik. Following to the death of Ibn Zubayr, asking for refuge, Muhammad b. Hanafiyya wrote a letter to 'Abd ul-malik, which was accepted.
