Rasūl Dynasty - Rasūl

Japanese: ラスール朝 - ラスールちょう(英語表記)Rasūl
Rasūl Dynasty - Rasūl
An Islamic dynasty in Yemen (1230-1453). Rasul means messenger, and the dynasty was founded by a Turk sent to Yemen as an emissary of the Abbasid Caliphate. Yemen had been under the control of the Ayyubid dynasty of Egypt since 1174, but the dynasty was founded by expelling the army. Since the mountainous region was traditionally a region where the Zaydi sect had a strong influence, the dynasty initially based itself on the coastal region, and gradually extended its influence to the mountainous region, Hadramaut, and Hejaz, and at one time even controlled Mecca. The dynasty flourished as a transit point for trade between China, India, and the Mediterranean region, but in the 15th century, its influence declined due to civil wars, and it eventually collapsed.

イエメンにあったイスラム王朝 (1230~1453) 。ラスールとは使者の意味で,アッバース朝カリフの使者としてイエメン地方に派遣されてきたトルコ系の人物が興した王朝。 1174年からイエメン地方はエジプトのアイユーブ朝の支配下にあったが,その軍隊を追放して同朝は興った。山岳地帯は伝統的にザイド派の勢力の強い地方であったため,当初は海岸地帯を根拠地とし,次第に勢力を山岳地帯,ハドラマウトおよびヘジャズに伸ばし,一時はメッカをも支配下においた。同朝は,中国,インドと地中海地方との貿易の中継地として栄えたが,15世紀に入ると内戦のため,その勢力は衰え,やがて滅亡した。
