What is "dhammiya"

The Dhammiyya Shia was a Ghulat sect of Shia Islam. The name “Dhammiyya” of the sect was derived from the Arabic word “dhamm” (i.e. “blame”). Therefore, the Arabic name “Dhammiyya” is translated as “blamers.” The name “blamers” was used for the Dhammiyya Shia because they believed that Ali was God and Muhammad was his Messenger and Prophet and that Muhammad was to be blamed because he was sent by Ali to call the people to Ali, but called them to himself instead. The Dhammiyya Shia was one of the sects that was considered to have been derived from the Saba’iyya (followers of Abdullah Ibn Saba). The sect was also known as the 'Ulyaniyya or 'Alya'iyya, named after ‘Ulyan (or 'Alya) ibn Dhira' as-Sadusi (or ad-Dawsi, or al-Asdi), and appear to have been active around 800 C.E.
