Abd al-Rahman Sanchuelo
Abd al- Rahman Sanchuelo( 983 – 3 March 1009), born and died in Córdoba, was the son of Almanzor who became chief minister of Hisham II, Caliph of Córdoba.
Almanzor actually had all power in his hands but nominally recognized the suzerainty of the caliph.
His son and successor Abd al- Malik al- Muzaffar acted in the same way.
His originally Christian mother was Abda( born Urraca), daughter of Sancho II of Pamplona, after whom he was named; Sanchuelo being the diminutive of Sancho; because he looked like his Christian grandfather.
In or about 997, the Kingdom of Pamplona attacked Calatayud and in revenge Almanzor ordered the beheading of 50 Pamplonan captives.
According to Ibn Darray, Sanchuelo himself beheaded his uncle, perhaps Gonzalo Sánchez of Aragon.
When Abd al- Malik died, his younger brother Abd al- Rahman succeeded him on 20 October 1008.
He used his great influence and forced the weak caliph to designate him as his heir( November 1008).
The population of Córdoba responded angrily to this development.
They had already disliked the rule of Almanzor because he had recruited many Berber mercenaries for his protection.
Abd ar- Rahman was also accused of poisoning his brother, Abd al- Malik.
When Abd al- Rahman went on an expedition against King Alfonso V of León( February 1009), the citizens of Córdoba rose against him.
They were led by Muhammad II al- Mahdi, a member of the Umayyad dynasty.
Muhammad II al- Mahdi removed his relative Hisham II from the throne, became the new caliph and destroyed Abd al- Rahman's residence, al- Madina al- Zahira(" the flourishing city").
On receiving this news Abd al- Rahman returned to Córdoba, but his troops abandoned him.
He was arrested and later assassinated on the orders of al- Mahdi.
Rauf Rashid Abd al-Rahman
Rauf Rashid Abd al- Rahman( born 1941) is the replacement chief judge of the Supreme Iraqi Criminal Tribunal's Al- Dujail trial of Saddam Hussein in 2006, when he sentenced Saddam and some of his top aides to death by hanging.
Abd al- Rahman is an ethnic Kurd from Halabja, the site of the 1988 Halabja poison gas attack.
He replaced Rizgar Mohammed Amin as chief judge on 23 January 2006.
Amin had resigned after being criticised in the Iraqi media for appearing" too soft" on the defendants by allowing them to speak aloud in court without being recognized.
After Amin's resignation, Abd al- Rahman headed the Supreme Iraqi Criminal Tribunal during the rest of the trial of Saddam Hussein for genocide, and when it sentenced him to death.
He also sentenced to death some of Hussein's top aides.
He was reportedly held and tortured by Hussein's security agents in the 1980s, and he lost several relatives in 1988 when his home town was hit by a poison gas attack, an attack ordered by Hussein and his cousin Ali Hassan al- Majid.
In December 2006, Abd al- Rahman took his family to Britain on a travel visa, and according to" The Times" and" Sun Online" applied for asylum.
The claim of his seeking asylum was directly disputed by the Iraqi High Criminal Court Tribunal, which said Abd al- Rahman was merely" enjoying a vacation with his family", and Abd al- Rahman never commented on the claim.
In June 2014, some western media outlets reported that Abd al- Rahman was captured and executed by ISIS militants while attempting to escape from Baghdad.
However, a spokesperson for the Kurdistan Regional Government's( KRG) Ministry of Justice in Erbil has refuted the claims and confirmed the judge to be alive.

Ilyas ibn Habib al-Fihri
Ilyas ibn Habib al- Fihri( died December 755) was an Arab noble of the Oqbid or Fihrid family, and briefly ruler of Ifriqiya( North Africa) in 755.
Ilyas ibn Habib was a son of the Ifriqiyan military commander Habib ibn Abi Obeida al- Fihri.
Ilyas was appointed governor of Tripoli( Tripolitana) by his brother, Abd al- Rahman ibn Habib al- Fihri, not long after the latter seized power in Kairouan in 745.
In 747, Ilyas tried to crack down on the fledgling Ibadites, a puritanical Kharijite sect strong in the cities of Djerba and Tripoli.
The Ibadites, inspired by the success of their brethren in Hadramut and Oman, revolted under the leadership of their imam al- Harith, and seized control of much of Tripolitana, between Gabès and Sirte, for themselves.
The Fihrids recovered Tripolitana in 752, driving the Ibadites south into the Jebel Nafusa.
After the victory of the Abbasids in the east in 750, many members of the Umayyad clan fled to Ifriqiya, at the invitation of Abd al- Rahman ibn Habib.
Ilyas ibn Habib married one of the damsels of the Umayyad clan.
Ilyas continued to serve under his brother, defeating various revolts against Fihrid rule, albeit growing increasingly resentful of the lack of honors that resulted.
When Abd al- Rahman designated his own son, Habib as his successor, the rift between the brothers grew.
Around 755, Abd al- Rahman discovered a plot concocted by several exiled Umayyad nobles, and executed the conspirators.
Urged on by his vengeful Umayyad wife, Ilyas assassinated his brother Abd al- Rahman ibn Habib in his personal quarters, plunging a dagger into his back while he played with his children.
Ilyas ibn Habib assumed power for himself in Kairouan, with the support of his younger brother Abd al- Wareth ibn Habib and his uncle Muhammad ibn Abi Obeida.
To secure his hold, he immediately restored the name of the Abbasid caliph Al- Mansur in the prayers.
But Ilyas's other brother, Amran ibn Habib, then in command of Tunis, refused to recognize the fratricidal coup.
Amran gave shelter to Abd al- Rahman's fugitive son, Habib ibn Abd al- Rahman, and together, they waged war against Ilyas and Abd al- Wareth.
The armies met south of Tunis in late 755.
But before battle was enjoined, an agreement was reached to partition Ifriqiya between the Fihrid family.
Amran was to be assigned the government of Tunis and environs, the young Habib the government of southerly Gafsa and Nafzawa, allowing Ilyas to hold on to the remainder of Ifriqiya and overlordship of the Maghreb.
The settlement made, Habib proceeded to Kairouan, while Ilyas accompanied Amran back to Tunis.
But once in Tunis, Ilyas suddenly turned on his brother and ordered the arrest of Amran and his coterie.
Amran was dispatched in chains to al- Andalus, where they would be handed over to Yusuf ibn Abd al- Rahman al- Fihri, governor of al- Andalus.
Returning to Kairouan, Ilyas pressured the young Habib to also leave for al- Andalus.
But before the ship could depart, Habib was seized by the partisans of his late father Abd al- Rahman, who promptly proclaimed Habib emir of Ifriqiya and raised an army in his name.
The two armies met in the environs of Laribus.
But before battle was enjoined, Habib challenged Ilyas to resolve the quarrel in single combat.
At first hesitant, Ilyas finally consented, at the urging of his own commanders.
Habib defeated and killed Ilyas, carrying his head as a trophy in a procession back to Kairouan.
This took place in December 755.
Hearing of Ilyas's defeat, Abd al- Wareth and remaining partisans of Ilyas fled south and took shelter among the Warfajuma Berbers, from where they would plot their comeback.
Abd al-Rahman al-Mahdi
Sayyid Abd al- Rahman al- Mahdi, KBE( 15 July 1885 – 24 March 1959) was one of the leading religious and political figures during the colonial era in the Anglo- Egyptian Sudan( 1898 – 1955), and continued to exert great authority as leader of the Neo- Mahdists after Sudan became independent.
The British tried to exploit his influence over the Sudanese people while at the same time profoundly distrusting his motives.
Throughout most of the colonial era of the Anglo- Egyptian Sudan the British saw Sayyid Abd al- Rahman al- Mahdi as important as a moderate leader of the Mahdists.
Abd al- Rahman was the posthumous son of Muhammad Ahmad bin Abd Allah, who had proclaimed himself the Mahdi or redeemer of the Islamic faith in 1881, and died in 1885 a few months after his forces had captured Khartoum.
A joint British and Egyptian force recaptured Sudan in 1898.
At first, the British severely restricted Abd al- Rahman's movement and activity.
However, he soon emerged as the" Imam"( leader) of the Ansar religious sect, supporters of the Mahdist movement.
The British maintained a close political relationship with Abd al- Rahman, despite him being a Muslim leader.
Meanwhile, he grew wealthy from cotton production, for which his supporters provided labor since he was a child exiled to Aba Island, and was influential and well loved among his people.
The British administration distrusted him because they could not control him or use him to exert influence on Sudan.
In the 1930s Abd al- Rahman spoke out against a treaty between Egypt and Britain that recognized Egyptian claims of sovereignty in Sudan, although no Sudanese had been consulted, travelling to London to make his case.
His Ansar followers became an influential faction in the General Congress established in 1938, and in the successor Advisory Council set up in 1944.
Abd al- Rahman was patron of the nationalist Ummah( Nation) political Party in the period before and just after Sudan became independent in 1956.
In 1958 the Umma party won the most seats in the first parliamentary elections after independence.
In November 1958 the army staged a coup, which Abd al- Rahman supported.
He died on 24 March 1959, aged 73.
In the post- war period, the Mahdi's family became the wealthiest family in Sudan from cotton production, mainly supported by the Baggara followers from Darfur and Kordofan.
These western tribes had been the backbone of the original Mahdist movement.
The riverine tribes were more inclined to side with the rival Khatmiyya movement.
Abd al- Rahman's economic activity, and the resulting wide range of contacts with merchants and owners and his schemes for irrigating cotton fields, gave him influence among Sudanese engaged in commerce.
As of 1 January 1922, the government became wary of his influence and power, and so suspended his economic activity.
The allowance of Abd al- Rahman was increased somewhat, but only so that he could support old women and other incapable people whose income had also been stopped by the government.
Abd al-Rahman ibn Katir al-Lahmi
Abd al- Rahman ibn Katir al- Lahmi was the penultimate Umayyad governor of Al Andalus from October 746 until January 747.
He was succeeded by Yusuf ibn' Abd al- Rahman al- Fihri.
