'''Al-Mukhtār b. Abī ʿUbayd al-Thaqafī''' ({{iarabic|المختار بن أبي عبيد الثقفي}}) (b. [[1]]/622-623 - d. | '''Al-Mukhtār b. Abī ʿUbayd al-Thaqafī''' ({{iarabic|المختار بن أبي عبيد الثقفي}}) (b. [[1]]/622-623 - d. [[67]]/687) the leader of one of the uprisings to take revenge of [[Imam al-Husayn]]'s (a) blood, one of [[tabi'un]] and from [[Ta'if]]. He hosted [[Muslim b. 'Aqil]] in [[Kufa]] and was imprisoned by [['Ubayd Allah b. Ziyad]] when the [[Battle of Karbala]] was taking place. During [[Uprising of al-Mukhtar|his uprising]] many of those people who took part in killing Imam al-Husayn (a) were killed. There is a disagreement regarding al-Muhktar's uprising, his religious sect, and his relation with the [[Ahl al-Bayt (a)]]. Some believe his uprising was with the permission of [[Imam Zayn al-'Abidin (a)]]. After 18 months of rule in [[Kufa]], al-Mukhtar was killed by [[Mus'ab b. al-Zubayr]] in [[67]]/687. His grave, which is next to the [[Mosque of Kufa]], is respected and visited by the Shi'a. | ||
