The period of the so-called Patriarchal Caliphs continues to be rich with questions which can be investigated only with material which often seems less than adequate. Among the more intriguing questions are those connected with the rôle of Kûfa and the emergence there of the political alignments with which representatives both of the early Umayyad caliphs and of the anti-caliph Ibn al-Zubary had later to deal, viz. the Kh awârij, the Sh i'a and the tribal a sh râf . The remarks in this article are intended to present a broad picture of conclusions reached in a more detailed study of the formation of these political alignments – conclusions which are based on evidence contained in the earliest Islamic historical sources available to us, notably those of al-Balâ dh urî, al-Tabarî, Ibn Sa'd, Ibn A' th am al-Kûfî, Kh alîfa b. Kh ayyât and Nasr b. Muzâhim al-Minqarî
