The House of Aidarus (Gheiravic: العيدروسة, Romanization: Al Eidrusah) was the lasting ruling house of the Kingdom of Fahran, reigning from 1548 to 1954 and from 1988 to 1996, when the Monarchy of Fahran was overthrown and abolished as a result of the December Intifada. The family belongs to the Ash'arah, one of the Bedouin clans of the Sub'ay, a sub-tribe of the Banu Qays', and are the matrilineal descendants of the House of Haydar and the Soureysh, being descended from the Prophet Mubashir through the union of his daughter Arwa bint Mubashir and the Caliph Idris ibn Nawfal.
The dynasty was founded by Aidarus the Thunderbolt, a tribal sheikh of the Banu Qays', in 1328 when he established the Emirate of Zabral. The family became the ruling house of Fahran when Abd ar-Rahman I conquered Sulh on June 9th, 1517, an event that led to the formation of the Sultanate of Fahran. During the reign of Salim the Magnificent, the Sultanate entered a short-lived golden age that saw the formalization of the Ash'ari School of Irsadic jurisprudence, the cultivation of commercial ties to southern Majula and Asura, and the cultivation of numerous literary, cultural, and academic achievements such as the authoring of the country's national epic the Aydhariadh by Tamim ibn Jabal Al Hashmari. Within two generations, however, Fahran would be reduced to the status of a vassal, a state that would persist until the establishment of the Fahranic Free State during the reign of Musa II.
Musa II and his successor Salim II aligned the family with anti-communist blocs and sought to foster positive relations with Malufi-ruled states such as the Empire of Hisaristan, the Sublime State of Qal'eh, and the Sultanate of Kodesh while struggling to appease a burgeoning well-educated middle-class intrigued with the political possibilities offered by republicanism and nationalism. The death of Salim II in 1954 ushered in the Great Interregnum as the late sultan's prime minister Bachir El Erian, a liberal aristocrat of middling rank, declared, in light of Prince Abd ar-Rahman ibn Abduallh's minority, that the people sovereign and dictated the adoption of a constitution that created a parliamentary democracy. The family initially retained their titles and wealth, albeit as mostly private citizens, but their situation deteriorated notably following the August 3 Revolution that swept President Abu Nasir al-Hariri from office in 1962 and resulted in the institution of a hard-line socialist single-party state under Alim Mustaffari two months later. Targeted purges of "royalists" resulted in as many as two thousand deaths, mostly of landowners suspected of being descended from Aidarus the Thunderbolt, and compelled several members of the House of Aidarus to seek asylum in Kodesh under the Caliph's protection.
