_Hishamites._--A name given to two sects: (1) Mu`tazilites, strong in their assertion of man's free-will, even opposing the statement of the Koran. (2) Shi`ites of the extreme kind, who attributed to God a body with quantities (measurements) and qualities. _Hudabites._--See Hadathites. _Hudhailites_ (Hodhailites).--Mu`tazilites, followers of Abu-l Hudhail Hamdan, who was a leading teacher of his party and developed the philosophical side of its teaching. Ten of his main doctrines are given by Shahrastani. _Ibadites._--Kharijites of moderate tendencies (see above). _Ilbaites._--Ghaliites who put `Ali above Mahomet and blamed the latter because he called men to himself instead of to `Ali. _Imamites._--One of the chief divisions of the Shi`ites (q.v.). _Ishaqites._--Ghaliites agreeing with the Nusairites except that they incline to speak of the imams' participation in the prophetic office rather than of their divinity. _Isma`ilites._--This name is applied to all who consider Isma`il ibn Ja`far the last imam, some believing that he did not die but will return, others, that at his death his son Mahommed became imam (see ASSASSINS); it is also used as equivalent to the Batinites. _Ithna`asharites._--Imamites who accept the twelve imams (see SHI`ITES). _Jabarites._--Those who deny all actions and power to act to man and ascribe all to God (see above). _Ja`farites._--Imamites who carry the imamate no farther than Ja`far us-Sadiq. _Jahizites._--Mu`tazilites, followers of the celebrated writer Jahiz (q.v.), who indulged in philosophical speculations, believed in the eternity of matter, and was regarded as a naturalist (_taba`i_) rather than a theist (_allahi_). _Jahmites._--Jabarites, followers of Jahm ibn Safwan, who was put to death at Merv toward the close of the Omayyad period. He was extreme in his denial of the attributes of God. _Jarudites._--Zaidites who held that Mahomet designated `Ali as imam, not by name but by his attributes, and that the Moslem sinned by not taking sufficient trouble to recognize these attributes. _Jubba`ites._--Mu`tazilites who followed the philosophical teaching of Abu `Ali Mahommed ul-Jubba`i of Basra. _Kaisanites._--A main class of the Shi`ites (q.v.). _Kamilites._--Ghaliites, followers of Abu Kamil, who condemned the companions (_Ansar_) because they did not do allegiance to `Ali, and `Ali because he surrendered his claims. _Karramites._--Sifatites, followers of Ibn Karram, who went so far as to ascribe a body to God, and assimilated his nature to human nature. _Kayyalites._--Ghaliites, followers of Ahmad ibn Kayyal, who, after supporting a propaganda for an Aliite, claimed to be the imam himself on the ground of his power over the spheres. _Khalafites._--`Ajarida of Kerman and Multan, who believed that God wills good and evil, but condemned the children of unbelievers to hell.
