Rasulid Ghassanid claims edit

The Zaidi imamas referred to the Rasulids as Ghuzz a general term referring to Anatolian Muslims at that time (Turkic/Kurdish), but the Rasulids claimed a Ghassanid origin. The choice of the Ghassanid lineage (Kahlani Qahtani lineage) claim is more than likely to galvanize the remnants of disposed Kahlani dynasties (Hamdani Khlani) along with majority of Yemenis (Qahtani) against their rivals. #1 Zaydi imams (Hashemite Adnani) & Ayyubid military (Kurds in Dhamar, later converted to Zaydi sect).

You'll need academic sources for this that say "more likely" or words to that affect. We can't use our own opinions, knowledge or reasoning, see WP:NOR. Doug Weller talk 18:06, 10 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Al Ghuzz is not Kurdish edit

Al Ghuzz exclusively refers to Turks regardless of religion. Kurds were simply identified as Kurds Hanssofty (talk) 15:37, 29 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

Daniel Mahoney The Political Agency of Kurds as an Ethnic Group in Late Medieval South Arabia edit

With all due respect, Mahoney is a newly minted PhD (2014) and his article has had no citations that I can see. It fails WP:RS. If what this source is being used for is an accepted idea in academia, it should be no problem finding a reliable source. Doug Weller talk 18:05, 10 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Mahoney work is just translations of Zaydi known references (few & well known), there is nothing really to add besides translations or original Arabic references that Mahoney already mentioned. So what we should do? Tiwahi (talk) 19:02, 10 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

I removed it and added a citation needed tag. Doug Weller talk 12:55, 11 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

Flowerpowerone, here is a source, It is, therefore, practically certain that the Rasulids were Ghassanids.[1]--SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 15:02, 21 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
Flowerpowerone, another source says thought they were Turkoman, but they were not, and they remained aware of their Ghassanid origin. Later they moved southward to Iraq[2]. Could you now self-revert?--SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 15:04, 21 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

The sources say that Imam of Yemen used this to claim that the Rasulids are outsiders.--SharʿabSalam▼ (talk) 15:37, 21 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
