The House of Aidarus was the lasting ruling house of the Kingdom of Fahran 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'ari, one of the branches 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 and the cultivation of commercial ties to southern Majula and Asura. Within two generations, however, Fahran would be reduced to the status of a vassal.
