is the name of a modern Mohammedan sect which teaches "that the knowledge of God extends to all things, but is perfected by experience; and that he governs the world according to the chance of divers events, as not having had, from eternity, a perfect knowledge of all things future." Of course the orthodox Mohammedans look upon this doctrine as heretical, and condemn the Jabajahites as an impious and blasphemous set. See Broughton, Biblioth. Hist. Sac. i, 498. (See MOHAMMEDANISM).
