Qizilbash or Kizilbash (Turkish: Kızılbaş "Red-Head", sometimes also Qezelbash or Qazilbash, Persian: قزلباش / qezelbāš) were a wide variety of Shi'i militant groups that [flourished] in Iranian Azerbaijan (historic Azerbaijan, also known as "Iranian Azerbaijan"),12 and Anatolia from the late 15th century onwards, some of which contributed to the [foundation] of the Safavid dynasty of Iran.34 The Qizilbash adhered to [heterodox] Shi’i doctrines encouraged by the early Safavi sheikhs Haydar and his son Ismail I. They regarded their rulers as divine figures, and so were classified as ghulat "extremists" by orthodox Twelvers.9
