The Hamdanids hailed from Arab Taghlib tribe, and are descendants of Adi ibn Usama al-Taghlibi. They're sometimes called Adawis or Taghlibis in historical sources.Template:Sfn

Hamdanid emirate of Jazirah and AleppoEdit

The Hamdanid dynasty was founded by Hamdan ibn Hamdun. By 892–893, he was in possession of Mardin, after fighting the Kharijites of the Jazira.Template:Sfn In 895, Caliph al-Mutadid invaded and Hamdan fled Mardin.Template:Sfn

Hamdan's son, Husayn, who was at Ardumusht, joined the caliph's forces.Template:Sfn Hamdan later surrendered to the caliph and was imprisoned.Template:Sfn In December 908, Husayn conspired to establish Ibn al-Mu'tazz as Caliph. Having failed, Husayn fled until he asked for mediation through his brother Ibrahim. Upon his return, he was made governor of Diyar Rabi'a.Template:Sfn In 916, Husayn, due to a disagreement with vizier Ali b. Isa, revolted, was captured, imprisoned, and executed in 918.Template:Sfn

Hamdan's other son, Abdallah, was made governor of Mosul in 905–906.Template:Sfn He conducted campaigns against the Kurds in that region and in 913–914, was dismissed from his post and subsequently revolted.Template:Sfn Abdallah submitted himself to Mu'nis, and with his pardon was made governor of Mosul in 914–915.Template:Sfn During his brother Husayn's revolt, both he and his brother Ibrahim were temporarily imprisoned.Template:Sfn By 919, Abdallah was commanding an army against Yusuf b. Abi l'Sadj, governor of Adharbaydjan and Armenia.Template:Sfn During their rule the Hamdanids intermarried with Kurdish dignitaries.Template:Sfn

The rule of Hassan Nasir al-Dawla (929–968), governor of Mosul and Diyar Bakr, was sufficiently tyrannical to cause him to be deposed by his own family.

His lineage still ruled in Mosul, a heavy defeat by the Buyids in 979 notwithstanding, until 990. After this, their area of control in northern Iraq was divided between the Uqaylids and the Marwanids.

Ali Sayf al-Dawla 'Sword of the Dynasty' ruled (945–967) northern Syria from Aleppo, and became the most important opponent of the Christian Byzantine Empire's re-expansion. His court was a centre of culture, thanks to its nurturing of Arabic literature, but it lost this status after the Byzantine sacking of Aleppo.

To stop the Byzantine advance, Aleppo was put under the suzerainty of the Fatimids of Egypt, but in 1003 the Fatimids deposed the Hamdanids.
