Ab? Muhammad al-?ajj?j ibn Y?suf ibn al-?akam ibn ?Aq?l al-Thaqaf? (Ta'if 661 – Wasit, 714), known simply as al-Hajjaj ibn Yusuf was perhaps the most notable governor who served the Umayyad Caliphate. An extremely capable though ruthless statesman, a strict in character, but also a harsh and demanding master, he was widely feared by his contemporaries and became a deeply controversial figure and an object of deep-seated enmity among later, pro-Abbasid writers, who ascribed to him persecutions and mass executions.
