	Idrisid dynasty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Idrisids were the first Arab dynasty in the western Maghreb, ruling from 788 to 985.
		The realm was also extended through campaigns into the high Atlas Mountains and against Tlemcen, with the result that the Idrisid state became the most significant power in Morocco, ahead of the principalites of the Bargawata, the Salihids, the Miknasa and the Maghrawa of Sijilmasa.
		The last Idrisid was deposed in 985, and they were succeeded in Morocco by the principality of the Maghrawa.

		The dynasty was named after Idris I, a refugee from the east who was the great-great-grandson of Fatima, daughter of the prophet Muhammad.
		This city was to become a center of Islamic and Arab culture throughout the centuries, thanks largely to the settlement there in the 9th century of two large contingents of refugees—one from Kairouan (present-day Al Qayrawān)in Tunisia, the other from Córdoba, cities that were the centers of Muslim civilization in Africa and Spain respectively.
		The Idrisid dynasty thus gave Morocco a capital, a tradition, and its patron saints in the two founders, Idris I and II.

	The Shia Idrisid State in Maghrib \|\| Imam Reza (A.S.) Network
		The most glorious work which the Idrisids did was Islam was spread among the Berbers through their efforts and was firmly rooted among them, so much so that they became the staunchest among the tribes of Al-Maghrib in respect to defending Islam.
		One of the most important factor which helped the Idrisids succeed in their mission and convert the Berbers to Islam was the treatment meted out to them by the Umayyad and Abbasid rulers which was nothing but dire cruelty and injustice that negated the spirit of Islam and presented it in most dark colors.
		These Berbers tribes succeeded the Idrisids in Morocco and what was left to the Muslims from Spain and established states other than those of the Berbres, like the Mu'ahhidin, Bani Marin, and Al-Murabitah.

	Chapter the Ninth: The Cord is Snapped
		The deck of the Idrisids' was higher than that of the Danes, and many of the first Danes were cut down by the curved swords in the hands of the waiting warriors before they landed.
		Idrisids and Danes were surging past me, grunting, yelling, with spear and sword glinting in their closed fists.
		Now we were moving to their ship, and the clean shaven one took hold of a rope where it dragged in the water, and they both turned me about and I wrapped my arms about the neck of the red haired one as we were hauled up the side of the Danish ship.

	Chapter the Twelfth: Grey Within and Without
		We had been on the Idrisid ship for eight days, or mayhap nine; and then upon the Danish one for four, I thought; and now this was our third day at the trading post, where every day seemed to be the same.
		If the Idrisids had killed them they would have likely brought their weapons on board as battle-gain, so I do not believe that.
		Also the Idrisid ship was fast and had the advantage in their quick start.
