Marwan was succeeded by his son, Abd al-Malik (685–705), who reconsolidated Umayyad control of the caliphate. The early reign of Abd al-Malik was marked by the revolt of Al-Mukhtar, which was based in Kufa. Al-Mukhtar hoped to elevate Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah, another son of Ali, to the caliphate, although Ibn al-Hanafiyyah himself may have had no connection to the revolt. The troops of al-Mukhtar engaged in battles both with the Umayyads in 686, defeating them at the river Khazir near Mosul, and with Ibn al-Zubayr in 687, at which time the revolt of al-Mukhtar was crushed. In 691, Umayyad troops reconquered Iraq, and in 692 the same army captured Mecca. Ibn al-Zubayr was killed in the attack.

Where was Al-Mukhtar based?
Kufa
Läs detta och besvara frågan Marwan efterträddes av sin son, Abd al-Malik (685–705), som omorganiserade Umayyads kontroll över kalifatet. Abd al-Maliks tidiga regeringstid präglades av al-Mukhtars revolt, som hade sitt säte i Kufa. Al-Mukhtar hoppades kunna upphöja Muhammed ibn al-Hanafiyyah, en annan son till Ali, till kalifatet, även om Ibn al-Hanafiyyah själv kanske inte hade någon koppling till revolten. Al-Mukhtars trupper engagerade sig i strider både med umayyaderna 686, besegrade dem vid floden Khazir nära Mosul, och med Ibn al-Zubayr 687, vid vilken tidpunkt al-Mukhtars revolt krossades. År 691 återerövrade umayyadiska trupper Irak, och år 692 intog samma armé Mecka. Ibn al-Zubayr dödades i attacken. Var var Al-Mukhtar baserad?
