“There is barakah in the luh”
— Mauritanian saying
No doubt, one of the blessings of this world is the act of writing knowledge, just as our Salaf (pious predecessors) used to do.
In traditional schools across the Muslim world today, it’s still common to see students writing on wooden boards (al-luh) with black ink.
Acquiring those traditional tools can be difficult nowadays, so I decided to take a modern twist on the tradition. I bought a whiteboard and some markers for 200 Moroccan dirhams (around $20 USD).
I wrote a few lines from the famous poem of Imam Ibn ʿĀshir Al-Fasi Al-Andalusi in his primer al-Murshid al-Muʿīn on the section of Usul al-Fiqh:
الْحُكْمُ في الشَّرْعِ خِطابُ رَبِّنــَا
الْمُقْتضِي فِعْـلَ الْمُكَلَّفِ افْطُنَــا
بِطَلَــبِ ِ أوْ إِذْنِ ِ أوْ بِوَضْـــعِ
لِسَبَبِ ِ أَوْ شَـرْطِ ِ أوْ ذِي مَنْـعِ
أَقْسـامُ حُكْـمِ الشَّرْعِ خَمْسّةُ تُرامْ
فَرْضُ ونَدْبُ وكَــراهَةُ حَـرامْ

It is said that the origins of Imam Ibn Ashir came from Al-Andalus although he was raised in Fez, Morocco.
We try to keep works of the scholars alive by memorizing their poems and studying their books.

Ibn Juljul
He was an Andalusian physician, historian, and one of Córdoba’s early medical scholars. He lived during the golden age of the Umayyad Caliphate in al-Andalus, when Córdoba stood as a beacon of science, learning, and translation and was the personal physician of Caliph Hisham II. His works bridged cultures from Greek and Syriac medicine to the Arabic tradition.
Ibn Juljul’s most famous work, Ṭabaqāt al-Aṭibbāʾ wal-Ḥukamāʾ (“Classes of Physicians and Wise Men”), is a biographical dictionary of doctors and philosophers. It preserves the names and contributions of early healers from Hippocrates to Andalusian contemporaries.
His commentaries on Dioscorides’ Materia Medica helped clarify the use of plants and minerals in medicine, adapting ancient pharmacology to the Andalusian environment. He wasn’t just copying old texts, but he was also translating, testing out, and improving text to help the new generations.

Ibn Juljul represents a generation that carried Greek science into the Arabic world and then passed it to medieval Europe. Some of his works, such as De secretis, were later studied centuries later such as by Albertus Magnus, who referred to him under the Latinized name Gilgil.

Toledo, Spain
I had the chance to visit one of the most remarkable medieval cities in Europe — a place where almost every corner carries traces of Andalusian history. My friend, Ali al-Andalusi, showed me around as much as he could in a single day, but it’s nearly impossible to see all of Toledo’s history in a single visit.
We walked through former mosques that were later converted into churches, saw Andalusian-style gardens, and talked down narrow streets once walked by the early Muslims of al-Andalus. Every corner has a price of Andalusian history.
It’s a city that you must visit if you’re in Spain. But the town holds difficult memories as well, especially related to the Inquisition and the forced conversions of the Muslim population. The city even has a well-known Torture Museum that reflects that.

The Mukhtasar of al-Tulaytili (the Toledan)
The Mukhtasar of al-Tulaytili was one of the well-known books of Maliki fiqh studied during the early era of Andalus before al-Murshid al-Muin of Imam ibn Ashir and Mukhtasar Khalil.
The author was from the city of Toledo, Spain and lived around 600 years before Imam ibn Ashir and 350 years before Imam Khalil.
Some Maliki jurists said, “Whoever memorizes it is the jurist of his village.”
Imam ibn Fakhar said, “O people of Toledo, two books have crossed your bridge and been received by the people: the Tafsir of Yahya ibn Mazin (explanation of Muwata), and the Mukhtasar of Ibn ʿUbayd (Mukhtaṣar of al-Tulaytili).”
In this mukhtasar, the author addressed the rulings of acts of worship and some rulings related to transactions, particularly those concerning usury (riba).

The work received considerable attention from later Maliki scholars in the forms of versification, annotation, and commentary. Such as:
-Abu ʿAbd Allah al-Karsuti al-Fasi (d. 690 AH) produced an annotation on it
-ibn al-Fakhkhar al-Judhami al-Andalusi (d. 723 AH) authored an extensive commentary titled Manzum al-Durr fī Sharh Kitab al-Mukhtasar
-Abu Hatim al-Darir composed a poem of the book

Mosque of Cristo de la Luz — Toledo, Spain
One of the most striking places I visited in Toledo was the Mosque of Cristo de la Luz. It is an incredibly important piece of Andalusian history. It was built during the Caliphate period and is the oldest surviving mosque in the city and one of the few that still preserves its original Andalusi architecture.

The Park of Emir Muhammad I — Madrid, Spain
On my trip to Madrid, I came across a place that beautifully reflects the city’s Islamic roots, the Park of Emir Muhammad I. This park is dedicated to Emir Muhammad I of Córdoba, the Umayyad ruler who founded the original settlement of Madrid (Mayrit in Arabic) in the 9th century, the very beginning of what would become modern Madrid.
What makes this park special is that this part of the city was the first fortified enclosure built under Muslim rule in the 800s and stand as one of the oldest surviving traces of Madrid’s old Islamic history.
For centuries, this history was hidden beneath later layers of the city and was only a plot of land, but in the early 2010s the Madrid authorities transformed the area into a park as we see now.
