D. 644). After a feeble reign of eleven years, he too fell the victim of a conspiracy, and at length Ali succeeded to the throne (a. D. 660). Moawiyeh (of the house of Ommiyah, the rival branch of the family of the Koreish, and in his early days the fiercest opponent of Mohammed), who governed as the caliph's lieutenant in Damascus, set np a rival claim to the caliphate. A truce and compromise were arranged ; the Syrian pretender gained the provinces of Persia, Yemen, and Egypt ; Ali fell by th...e hand of an assassin ; Moawiyeh induced the son of Ali to relinquish his pretensions; and finally secured the succession to his own descendants.
The religion of conquest began at a period favourable to its success, in the most degenerate and disorderly period of the Persians, the Romans, and the Barbarians of Europe. It boldly attacked at once the Persian monarchy and the Roman empire ; and within a hundred years from the flight from Mecca, the power of the successors of Mohammed extended from India to the Atlantic Ocean, over Persia, Syria, Egypt, Africa, and Spain.
