ملامح ضمور الهوية الأندلسية في القرن السادس الهجري-الثاني عشر الميلادي

Abstract EN

Andalusian identity features were atrophied when Al-Andalus fell under the authority of the Moroccan Almoravids; thus, it became like a Moroccan “vilayet” (state) at the end of the last quarter of the 5th Hijra century/ 11th century AD when Prince Yusuf ibn Tashfin ended the rule of Taifas’ small kingdoms in Al-Andalus in 485H.

/1092.

The Moroccans continued to rule Al-Andalus until the Almohads were defeated in the battle of ‘Al-Eqaab’ in 609H.

/1212.

They inherited the political legacy of Almoravids by ruling both Morocco and Al-Andalus together.

For a whole century and more, the society in Al-Andalus has been gradually affected by its Moroccan rulers.

This has influenced the features of its identity that distinguished the Andalusian identity, whether in the system of government and administration, social or scientific life.

This research is tracing the features of this atrophy that affected the identity of the society, which society has always cherished its uniqueness from the Moroccan identity.

The research is also monitoring it and showing its outcomes on its social customs, traditional heritage, and cultural and doctrinal character, with which Al-Andalus was known for centuries.

The Maliki School was the official state doctrine until the Almoravid era.

However, with the rule of Almohads, the situation changed and Al-Malki School of thought was being fought, and the official state doctrine of Almohad Khalifs was Al-Zāhiri.

It is undeniable that it is the biggest impact on the Andalusian identity, whose prominent feature was Malik’s doctrine, as regards the Andalusian society’s attempts to cohesion in front of melting into the system of the other.
