Imām ibn Abd al-Barr al-Andalusī:

They should not prevent the youth, if he knows something, from speaking about what he has knowledge of. Perhaps a person may be young in age, but an elder with regards to his knowledge. And Allah blesses whom He wills through wisdom and mercy.

🔷The Grand Mosque of Chefchouen.

If you want to see a old Mosque that became one of the first places of worship for the Andalusians coming into North Africa then this one of them.

The Mosque was helped built in the 9th Century Hijra (15th century) by the ruler at the time, Moulay Ali ibn Rashid who helped also founded the city of the mosque, Chefchaouen.

The city, Chefchaouen was founded as a purpose of defending the northern coast of North Africa from growing European powers from invading.

This was also a very critical era for the Muslims because of Andalusians started to migrate out of al-Andalus and into other Muslim lands after fall of Granada in 897AH (1492).

Many Muslims started to migrate to North Africa to rebuild their lives and help establish new cities, villages, buildings, etc. such as Tétouan, Fes and Chefchouen. They helped build their new lives based upon their Andalusian European culture as we can still see today.

It wasn’t untill the 17th century when the final migrants started to settle in Chefchouen after the exile of Muslims from Spain.

Hundreds of people (daily) visit the former rooms of the castle on top, but have no idea about the hidden rooms that lie beneath them.

Such as: Secret escape routes, secret tunnels that guards will stand near and protect from danger, dungeons,etc.

As mentioned in the video from one of the Spanish archeologists, “There is still much to discover.”

🔷Ibn Hazm al-Andalusī:

The sign of sorrow is a flame.

That strikes the heart,
and burns the same,

As too the tears that freely go

Adown the cheeks in ceaseless flow.

🔷 A book about the Nasridyyah or Bani Nasir. The last rulership family of al-Andalus by Lisān ad-Dīn ibn al-Khatīb

Forget fake fairy tale stories with dragons and zina. This is a real family that suffered a lot of trials.

When you read about them you fill find lost stories of mystery and adventures that you can’t find in those fake fairy tale stories of kings and queens.

Some of their family members are still alive.

طابَتْ بوجودِكَ أنْدَلُسٌ
‏حسُنَتْ بجوارِكَ مُرتَفَقا
-
‏إنْ طافَ بها شيْطانُ عِدىً
‏يبْغي بسَمائِكَ مُسْتَرَقا
-
‏أو جاسَ خِلالَ منازِلها
‏قذَفَتْهُ سُعودُكَ فاحْتَرَقا
