Concerning the features of his uprising can be mentioned to: it was popular and self-awakening, his charisma and outstanding elite role in the leadership of the uprising, insurrection independently and without communication and reliance on any internal and external power, Iranian-oriented uprising, and finally the only Kurdish uprising in southern Kurdistan.
