العيون والجواسيس في عهد الدولة العامرية (٣٦٨-٣٩٩ ه)‎

Abstract EN

It has become clear to us after this research and study that the country of Andalusia has known, since the conquest until the fall of Granada, several eyes and spies, seeking news at the expense of what their needs require.

And things settled down, and these eyes began to monitor the neighboring cities, with the intention of opening them, and finding out the news of the Spanish Christians.

The rulers and sultans in Andalusia have consistently established the pillars of their state by relying on large numbers of eyes, the aim of which was to investigate news and be an effective means to respond to opponents and get rid of the rebels and opponents of the ruling authority, as well as spreading rumors and achieving the goal of moral collapse of the hostile forces.

Things took a different turn in the time of Al-Mansur Al-Hajib Muhammad bin Abi Amer, and the role of Al-Ayoun escalated during his reign with the escalation of the conflict with the Christians.

And those opposed to his rule, in addition to his response to many of the Christian attacks that were plotted against himThis apparatus depicted the role that Al-Ayoun played for the ruling authority, as it was credited with revealing many conspiracies and attempts of treachery, and it came after Al-Mansur, his successors who followed the same policy, but it seems that the deterioration of the Amiri state and the disintegration of Andalusia in the era of sects led to neglecting the role of Al-Ayun and spies Because of the many wars and internal conflicts.
