Family tree of the Sufyanid house of the Umayyad dynasty

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Genealogical tree of the Sufyanid branch of the Umayyad clan (Banu Umayya). The progenitor of the family was Abu Sufyan Sakhr (d. 753), a grandson of Umayya ibn Abd Shams, the progenitor of the Umayyads. The Sufyanids, beginning with Mu'awiya I, were the ruling family of the Umayyad Caliphate from 661 until 684, when they were replaced by the Marwanid branch of the dynasty. Descendants of Abu Sufyan continued to play an active role in Syria's political affairs under the Marwanids (684-750) and well into the Abbasid era (post-750).
