'''Marwān b. Ḥakam b. Abī l-ʿAs b. ʾUmayya''' was the fourth [[Umayyad]] caliph and the head of Marwanids. In his childhood, Marwan and his father were exiled to Ta’if and were returned to Medina by the third caliph, ‘Uthman b. ‘Affan, where he received a position in the administration of the caliphate. In the battles of Jamal and Siffayn, he stood against Imam Ali (a). Later he opposed burying the body of Imam Hasan (a) beside the grave of the Prophet (s) who was his grandfather. He also later had an argument with Imam al-Husayn (a) as he (a) did not give allegiance to Yazid. After withdrawal of Mu’awiya b. Yazid from caliphate, Marwan took the caliphate and after about 10 months, was poisoned by his wife and died in 65 AH. | |||
