الملخص EN

Much of the productive interactions between Muslims, Jews, and Christians happened in al- Andalus, particularly during the Umayyad Caliphate.

Al-Andalus provided an environment in which ideas, techniques, and artistic modes could move between the different religious communities.

In this paper, we will focus on an image of peaceful coexistence in al-Andalus, how have scholars of al- Andalus approached this issue of transmission? Which monuments and portable arts have been most frequently employed in these interactions, and why? The paper derived important results related to the complex relationship between the three societies, the Jews, Christians and Muslims, of medieval al-Andalus and the episodes of cultural appreciation and cooperation between the different religious communities during the period that lasted from 138/756 to 422/1031.
