Answer: People resented Umayyad rule because non-Arab Muslims did not like the way local administrators favored Arabs.
Explanation:
The Umayyad dynasty was not universally supported within the Muslim community for a variety of reasons, including their hereditary election and suggestions of impious behavior. Some Muslims felt that only members of Muhammad's Banu Hashim clan or those of his own lineage, such as the descendants of Ali, should rule.
