The fabrication of hadith (j‘al al-hadith) is a process in which certain fabricated narrations are falsely attributed to the infallibles, particularly the Prophet Mohammad (PBUH). This phenomenon was often employed to undermine the core principles of Islam. The Umayyad rulers extensively engaged in hadith fabrication during their reign. This study aims to answer the question: What were the objectives of the Umayyads in fabricating hadiths? The findings reveal that the Umayyads pursued four primary objectives in their policy of hadith fabrication: 1- Desecration of Beliefs: Undermining and desacralizing foundational Islamic beliefs. 2- Self-Sanctification: Establishing divine legitimacy and sanctity for their rule. 3- Glorifying Others: Elevating the status of certain companions to rival or surpass the Ahl al-Bayt by portraying them as equals or superior figures. 4- Diminishing the Ahl al-Bayt: Undermining the virtues of the Ahl al-Bayt and their Shia followers to diminish their influence and prestige. The study employs a descriptive-analytical and content-analysis methodology to examine these objectives.
