Idris II – Imam Idris Ibn Idris (D. 218AH)
Imam Idrīs ibn Idrīs
Peace Be Upon Him
Imam Idrīs ibn Idrīs ibn ʿAbdullāh (peace be upon them) made the call to God after his father, continuing the rising of the Idrīsid line in the Maghrib. He died in the year 218 AH.
Imam Idrīs ibn ʿAbdullāh left descendants in the Maghrib, as did many of the offspring of his brothers — the Imams — in the regions of the Tihāma lowlands. The lineage of the Prophet’s family thus took root across both east and west.

Thereafter the hands of the Ashraf (nobles) from among the descendants of the two grandsons — al-Ḥasan and al-Ḥusayn (peace be upon them) — held sway over the noble Sanctuary in succession, generation after generation.
