Sulaymanids

Yemeni States around 1160 AD

The Sulaymanids (Arabic: السليمانيون, romanizedas-Sulaymāniyyūn) were a sharif dynasty from the line of the Muhammad's grandson Hasan bin Ali which ruled around 1063–1174. Their centre of power lay in Jazan in currently Saudi Arabia, Southern Arabia back then since 1020 where they soon achieved a political and social status that enabled them to establish a strong Hereditary Monarchy before the arrival of the Ottoman Empire which destroyed them[1]
