Al Hassan Addakhil

Al Hassan Addakhil

l-Hesn d-Dakhl (Standard Arabic: الحسن الداخل al-Hassan ad-Dākhil "The One who Entered") was an alleged direct ancestor to Mulay ˤLi Shrif, founder of the Alaouite Dynasty, which is the current Moroccan royal family. He was taken to Morocco from the town of Yanbu in the Hejaz at the end of the 13th century by the inhabitants of Tafilalt to be their Imām. They were hoping that, as he was a descendant of the prophet Muhammad, his presence would help to improve their date palm crops thanks to his "barakah" (an Islamic term meaning a sense of divine presence or charisma).
