The Banū Jahīr (lit. 'the sons of Jahir'), were a family that produced several high-ranking government officials who at various times served both the Abbasids and the Seljuks.[1][2] Most notably, they dominated the Abbasid vizierate for almost 50 years during the second half of the 11th century and then in the early years of the 12th century.[2] They were also known as the Āl Jahīr, or "the people of Jahir".[1]
