The campaign of the Kutamas against the Aghlabids is a campaign led by the Ketama and the Fatimids against the Aghlabids in Ifriqiya (now Tunisia) in the 10th century. The campaign began in 902, led by Abu Abd Allah ash-Shi'i, and ended in 909 with the capture of Raqqada, the Aghlabid capital. It marks the overthrow of the Aghlabid dynasty and the beginning of the Fatimid Caliphate.

Context
Around 893, Abu Abd Allah ach-Shi'i met the Kutamas in Mecca, and joined them in Kabylia, a place from which he began to preach his religious doctrine, Ismaili Shiism. He founded the Fatimid movement in Kabylie . The Aghlabids, irritated by the presence of the Fatimids, initiated fighting against them from Mila.

Procedure
In 902, the Kutama-Fatimids launched a major military campaign against the Aghlabids. These react and several battles ensue. In 904, the Kutama-Fatimids took the city of Setif. Several battles took place, until 909, when the Fatimid destroyed the Aghlabid dynasty and annexed all their territories.

Consequences
After the fall of the Aghlabids, the Fatimids settled in the newly conquered territory and the Abbasids lose their sovereignty in Ifriqiya.
