The era of Imam Sajjad's (a) Imamate was contemporary with several [[Umayyad Caliphs]] (reigned: 41–132 AH) and the Zubayrids (reigned: 64–73 AH), including [[Yazid ibn Mu'awiya]] (61–64), [[Abdallah ibn al-Zubayr]] (64–73), [[Mu'awiya ibn Yazid]] (64), [[Marwan ibn al-Hakam]] (65), [[Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan]] (65–86), and [[Walid ibn Abd al-Malik]] (86–96). The dominance of the Umayyad faction and the multi-year control of the Zubayrids over [[Mecca]] and [[Medina]]—as opponents of the Shia and the [[Ahl al-Bayt (AS)]]—created one of the most critical and difficult periods of his Imamate.<ref>Ithbat al-Wasiyya, pp. 167–168; al-Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya, Supplication 49, p. 244.</ref>
