Who was Amr ibn Ubayd?
Amr Ibn Ubayd ibn Bāb was one of the earliest leaders in the "rationalist" theological movement of the Mu'tazilis, literally 'those who withdraw themselves' - which was founded by Wasil ibn Ata.

He generally followed a quietist political stance toward the Abbasid political establishment.
