Ziyad B. Ebih (His Life – Personality – Statesmanship)
Following the end of the Prophet Muhammad's death, the Age of Bliss began a new era. During this period, known as the era of the Rashidun Caliphs, Muslim society faced numerous problems and new situations. Then, with Muawiyah ibn Abi Sufyan becoming Caliph following an agreement with Hasan, a completely new era began, ushering in the Umayyad era for Muslims. It is during these turbulent times that certain individuals, known to the Arabs as geniuses, rose to prominence and shaped the course of events. Ziyad ibn Abih, one of these figures known as "Duhat al-Arab," was known for his talents and abilities. Despite not having a noble lineage or strong tribal ties, and despite being a figure sometimes despised due to the uncertainty surrounding his father, he nevertheless made a name for himself. His political career, which began during the reign of Umar, reached its peak during the reign of Muawiyah. Ziyâd, who demonstrated his strength in fields such as oratory, literature, conquests, agriculture and economics, as well as his political abilities, is one of the leading figures in history worthy of attention and research with his versatile personality.
