This paper is the second part of a detailed study devoted to the religious movements of the10th century Middle East. The conflict of two renowned wazirs ‘Ali b. al-Furat and ‘Ali b. ‘Isa reflected the struggle between the clans of Nestorian secretaries and Shi‘ites who were supported by Judaic bankers. Ibn Furat obtained the losing of domination of Nestorian secretaries in the ‘Abbasid Caliphate. His adherents started in pursuit of some ecstatic Sufis like al-Hallaj. But later their supremacy came to an end and Ibn Muqla dealt shortly with extreme Shi‘ite al-Shalmaghani who was supported by Banu ’l-Furat. All these repressions connected with fear of Qarmates who were the key threat for the Caliphate in this period.
