Ahmad ibn Khalid al-Nasiri

Ahmad ibn Khalid al-Nasiri

Abu al-Abbas Ahmad ibn Khalid al-Nasiri al-Salawi, (1834/5-1897) was born in Salé and is considered to be the greatest Moroccan historian of the 19th century. [David Robinson, Jean-Louis Triaud, Ghislaine Lydon, "Le temps des marabouts: itinéraires et stratégies islamiques en Afrique occidentale francaise v. 1880-1960", p. 136, Paris: Karthala editions, 1997, Islam and state ISBN 2865377296] He was a prominent scholar and a member of the family that founded the Nasiriyya Sufi order in the 17th century. He wrote an important multivolume history of Morocco: "Kitab al-Istiqsa li-Akhbar duwwal al-Maghrib al-Aqsa" [ New annotated edition in 8 volumes, Keta Books, 2002] . The work is a general history of Morocco and the Islamic west from the Islamic conquest to the end of the 19th century. He died in 1897 shortly after having put the finishing touches to his chronicle. [C.R. Pennell "Morocco Since 1830: A History", p. 109,]
