Nukkari

The Nukkari or simple Nukkar (also Nakkari or Nakkariyah; in Latin sources named Canarii) are one of the main branches of the North African Ibadi, founded in 784 by Abu Qudama Yazid ibn Fandin al-Ifrani.[1][2] Led by Abu Yazid al-Nukkari, they revolted against the ruling Fatimids in Ifriqiya (today's Tunisia and eastern Algeria), conquering Kairouan in 944 and laying siege to Sousse, but were ultimately defeated in 947.[3] Remnants of the Nukkari are thought to have survived on the island of Djerba.[2] They split from mainstream Ibadism, i.e. the Wahbi.[4]
