Abu al Muhajir Dinar lang ar died 683 , amir of Ifriqiya under the Umayyad s. His biography is complicated by the existence of two versions of the history of the Umayyad conquest of North Africa , those written before the 11th century and those written later. ref See Benabb s 2005 , Mod ran 2005 . ref He was originally a slave of Maslama ibn Mukhallad al Ansari Maslama ibn Mukhallad , a member of the Ansar Islam Ansar , who gave him his freedom. Maslama, one of the Prophet Muhammad s companions , was appointed by the first Umayyad caliph Muawiyah I to the position of List of governors of Islamic Egypt governor of Egypt and Ifriqiya . The inclusion of Ifriqiya was nominal, as until then the Arab s had made only temporary raids in that direction without attempting permanent control.

This position was already occupied by Uqba ibn Nafi , a member of the Quraysh tribe Banu Quraish . Maslama advised Abu al Muhajir to relieve Uqba of his position with due deference, but it seems that this did not happen.

Bologhine was already given responsibility under the governorship of his father Ziri ibn Manad , during which time he founded the cities of Algiers , Miliana and M d a . After Ziri s death in battle against renegade Berber people Berbers , Bologhine became governor of Algeria and defeated the Zanata tribe. The prisoners were resettled in great numbers in the settlement of Ashir. When the Fatimids transferred their base from Mahdia to Egypt , Bologhine ibn Ziri was appointed viceroy of Ifriqiya , with the capital at Kairouan . The Fatimids had taken the treasury and fleet with them to Egypt, so the first priority of the Zirid government was to consolidate their rule. However the loss of the fleet meant loss of control over the Kalbids in Sicily. Bologhine advanced towards the Atlantic during a campaign in Morocco, where he also fought against the Bargawata . The Caliph of Cordoba Caliphate of C rdoba was however able to retain the fortresses of Ceuta and Tangiers . Bologhine died in 984 whilst returning from this expedition.

An Nasir ibn Alnas died 1088 was the fifth ruler of the Hammadids in Algeria , from 1062 until his death. An Nasir succeeded Buluggin ibn Muhammad 1055 1062 after his murder in 1062. After the decline of the Zirids in Ifriqiya as a result of the invasion of the Banu Hilal since 1051 , An Nasir was able to extend the influence of the Hammadids in the Maghreb . Vassals were installed in Tunis and territory as far as Kairouan came under control. Influence was also built up in the northern Sahara by driving out the Ibadi from Sandrata 1077 . With the establishment of Bejaia as a second capital, maritime trade gained importance for the economy. Italian architects and craftsmen were enlisted in the construction of Bejaia. The extensive control of the trade routes led to economic growth and a flourishing of the kingdom. However, the stability of the realm was precarious, since the Bedouin Banu Hilal began to infiltrate the Hammadid state after their conquest of Ifriqiya. At first, they were used as mercenaries against the Almoravids of Morocco even when the Almoravids conquered territory as far as Algiers in 1081, they could be turned back with Bedouin help. But the Banu Hilal could not be kept under Hammadid control, and ultimately caused the downfall of the kingdom.

Multiple issues expert subject January 2010 refimprove January 2010 notability January 2010 Khalid ibn Abi Habib al Fihri ? October, 740 was an Arab military commander in Maghreb North Africa during the Berber Revolt , who led the Arab army that was defeated at the Battle of the Nobles in late 740. The chronicles are oddly ambiguous on the biographical details of Khalid ibn Abi Habib. It is acknowledged e.g. Ibn Khaldun , p. 360 that he was a member of the illustrious Fihrid family, the cream of the cream, descendants of the great Arab conqueror Uqba ibn Nafi Oqba ibn Nafi al Fihri . The patronymic structure suggests Khalid is the son of the father of Habib, which would imply that it is likely Khalid was the brother of Habib ibn Abi Obeida al Fihri , the principal military commander of Ifriqiya . But this is not confirmed. ref If it is indeed true that Khalid and Habib were brothers, then their different patronyms Ibn Abi Habib and Ibn Abi Obeida respectively might have been introduced merely as a convenient distinguishing device to avoid confusing the brothers. Abu Habib and Abu Obeida are the same person their father cf. Fihrids Fihrid family . However, in his chronicle, Ibn Khaldun , departs momentarily from this usage and writes p.360 that Ibn Abi Obeida fell at the Battle of the Nobles . This is not an error but technically correct as Abu Obeid was indeed Khalid s father . Nonetheless, this seems to have led some careless readers to assume Ibn Khaldun meant Habib and consequently confuse the Battle of the Nobles Khalid s death, 740 with the Battle of Bagdoura Habib s death, 741 . ref When the Berber Revolt of Maysara al Matghari broke out in Morocco in 740, the bulk of the Ifriqiya n army, under the commander Habib ibn Abi Obeida al Fihri was overseas, on campaign in Sicily . The governor of Ifriqiya Obeid Allah ibn al Habhab immediately dispatched instructions to Habib break off the expedition and ship the army back to Africa.

Muhammad al Nasir , an N ir li d n Allah Mu ammad ibn al Man r , died 1213 was the Almohad caliph from 1198 until his death. Biography Muhammad al Nasir inherited from his father Abu Yusuf Ya qub al Mansur 1198 an empire that was showing signs of instability. Because of his father s victories against the Christian s in the Iberian Peninsula Al Andalus , he was temporarily relieved from serious threats on that front and able to concentrate on combating and defeating Banu Ghaniya attempts to seize Ifriqiya Tunisia . Needing, after this, to deal with problems elsewhere in the empire, he appointed Abu Mohammed ibn Abi Hafs as governor of Ifriqiya, so unwittingly inaugurating the rule of the Hafsid dynasty there, which lasted until 1574. He now had to turn his attention back to Iberia, to deal with a crusade proclaimed by Pope Innocent III . This resulted in his defeat by a Christian coalition at the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa 1212 . He died the following year, and was succeeded by his young son Yusuf al Mustansir . His viziers were Abu Zayd bin Yujan 1198 1199 Abu Mohammed ben Abi Hafs Abu Muhammad bin ash Shaykh Abi Hafs 1199 1205 , the future governor of Ifriqiya see above .

unsourced date September 2010 For populated places in Iran Abbasi, Iran disambiguation Abbasi, Iran Abbasi lang ar is a prominent Islamic family name. Origin Image Abbasid Khalifate.png thumb 450px right The extent of Abbasid rule The Abbasid caliphate was founded by the descendants of the Islamic prophet Muhammad s youngest uncle, Abbas ibn Abd al Muttalib, in Harran in 750 CE and shifted its capital in 762 to Baghdad. It flourished for two centuries, but slowly went into decline with the rise to power of the Turkish army it had created, the Mamluks. Within 150 years of gaining control of Persia, the caliphs were forced to cede power to local dynastic emirs who only nominally acknowledged their authority. The caliphate also lost the Western provinces of Al Andalus, Maghreb and Ifriqiya to an Umayyad prince, the Aghlabids and the Fatimids, respectively. The Abbasids rule was briefly ended for three years in 1258, when Hulagu Khan, the Mongol khan, sacked Baghdad, resuming in Mamluk Egypt in 1261, from where they continued to claim authority in religious matters until 1519, when power was formally transferred to the Ottomans and the capital relocated to Constantinople.
