After Mohammad’s death, the early caliphs and their governors and commanders continued to negotiate political, military, and religious authority through the medium of the khotba (cf. Dahne, passim). Among the khotba genres at this time was the khotbat al-bayʿa, a speech delivered by the new caliph upon the former caliph’s death announcing his assumption of the caliphate, or delivered by a governor proclaiming allegiance to the new caliph. The caliphs Abu Bakr (d. 13/632), ʿOmar (d. 23/644), ʿOtman (d. 35/656), and their generals delivered many orations of a religio-political nature. Imam ʿAli b. Abi Taleb consistently used the medium of the khotba in the turbulent four years of his caliphate to negotiate power and preach piety. His khotbas are considered some of the most eloquent examples of Arabic oratory, and many pieces attributed to him have been collected in medieval compilations such as Sarif Razi’s (d. 406/1014) Nahj al-balaqa and Qazi Qozaʿi’s (d. 454/1062) Dostur maʿalem al-hekam.<ref>cf.

After Mohammad’s death, the early caliphs and their governors and commanders continued to negotiate political, military, and religious authority through the medium of the khotba (cf. Dahne, passim). Among the khotba genres at this time was the khotbat al-bayʿa, a speech delivered by the new caliph upon the former caliph’s death announcing his assumption of the caliphate, or delivered by a governor proclaiming allegiance to the new caliph. The caliphs Abu Bakr (d. 13/632), ʿOmar (d. 23/644), ʿOtman (d. 35/656), and their generals delivered many orations of a religio-political nature. Imam ʿAli b. Abi Taleb consistently used the medium of the khotba in the turbulent four years of his caliphate to negotiate power and preach piety. His khotbas are considered some of the most eloquent examples of Arabic oratory, and many pieces attributed to him have been collected in medieval compilations such as Sarif Razi’s (d. 406/1014) Nahj al-balaqa and Qazi Qozaʿi’s (d. 454/1062) Dostur maʿalem al-hekam.<ref>cf. Qutbuddin, 2012; idem, 2013</ref>


In the late 7th and early 8th centuries, a wide range of contexts and contents were engaged by the khotba. In [[Umayyad|Omayyad]] times, the oratorical center-stage of the caliphs was taken over by their governors and commanders. Two governors of Iraq, Ziad b. Abihi (d. 53/673) and Hajjaj b. Yusof Thaqafi (d. 95/714), became infamous for their harsh, albeit eloquent, speeches castigating the recalcitrant populations living in their domain. Historians, as well as litterateurs, have recorded Hajjaj’s rhymed address to the inhabitants of [[Kufa]] as “O people of Iraq, O people of dissension (sheqaq) and hypocrisy (nefaq).” In another renowned speech, the Omayyad conqueror of Andalusia, Tareq b. Ziad (d. after 95/714), is reported to have deliberately burnt his own ships and then to have addressed his army with the words “Where will you flee? The sea is behind you and the enemy in front.… Fight!...”.<ref>Ebn Qotayba, 1990, II, p. 87</ref> From the Omayyad period, homilies characterized as khotbas are also attributed to ascetics and theologians. The ascetic preacher Hasan Basri (d. 110/728) and Wasel b. ʿAtaʾ (d. 131/748) expounded themes of God’s oneness, pious counsel, and ubi sunt (Latin “Where are they?”), referring to generations that have died and drawing attention to the transience of human life.<ref>Jahez, III, pp. 132-34; Ebn Qotayba, 2003, III, p. 370</ref> Powerful orations were delivered by anti-establishment leaders. These included revolutionaries of two very different stripes. The Kharejites believed that mortal sins, which to them included refusal to condemn Imam ʿAli and [[Muʿawiya]] (d. 60/680), constituted apostasy. Kharejite commanders such as Abu Hamza Shari (d. ca. 130/748) and Qatari b. Fojaʾa (d. ca. 78/697) fired up their followers to fight with the assertion that all Muslims who did not subscribe to this doctrine were polytheists, legally subject to the sword. Proto-Shiʿite leaders such as Imam [[Hussain ibn Ali|Hussain b. ʿAli]] (d. 61/680) and Zayd b. ʿAli b. Hussain (d. 122/740) based their claim to legitimacy on their descent from the Prophet Mohammad and the weighty services rendered by them and their forebears to Islam. The early [[ʿAbbasid]] period saw a similar application of the khotba, with caliphs, commanders, and governors continuing to execute policy and perform religious ritual through this vehicle, as well as anti-establishment leaders advocating reform and revolt.<ref>Safwat, III, passim</ref>

Most orators were men, but public khotbas were also delivered in unusual and distressful situations by women. Examples of female orators from the early period include four of high rank: The Prophet Mohammad’s daughter [[Fatima]] (d. 11/632) gave an impassioned speech to Abu Bakr and his associates asserting her right to inherit the lands of Fadak and her husband ʿAli’s right to succeed Mohammad. Mohammad’s widow ʿAʾesa (d. 58/678) gave speeches praising her father Abu Bakr, and later, inciting the Basrans to fight Imam ʿAli in the Battle of the Camel (al-Jamal). The Prophet’s granddaughters Zaynab (d. 62/682) and Omm Koltum (d. after 62/682) delivered strong orations to the Kufans and Syrians in the aftermath of the Karbala tragedy, condemning the Omayyads’ killing of their brother Imam Hussain.<ref>Ebn Abi Taher, pp. 3-29</ref>
