is the name of a sect which arose in the East headed by Nafe ben-Azrach. They refused to acknowledge any superior power on earth, whether temporal or spiritual. They became a powerful body under the reign of the caliphs, declared themselves the sworn enemies of the Ommiades, but were at length overpowered and dispersed.
