Ibn al-Zaqqaq

32

Who is Ibn al-Zaqqaq?

Ali ibn Attiya ibn al-Zaqqaq was one of the great poets of Al-Andalus during the reign of the Almoravids. He came from a Moroccan, Berber family and was the nephew of Ibn Khafaja.

The patrons of Ibn al-Zaqqaq were two Valencian families, a governor, a family of Almoravid dignitaries, probably the supreme Almoravid judge of the East and perhaps the Almoravid ruler Ali ibn Yusuf himself.
