==History== The Jarudiyya are counted as one of the first branches of Zaidism. Jozef Van Ess called this sect the "Surhubiyya". Two people had essential roles in the theoretical basics of this sect. One of them is Abu al-Jarud, the one who established this school, and the other is Abu Khalid, his heir.
