Abstract

The historian ʿIzz al-Dīn b. Shaddād had been contemporary of the Ayyubid and Mamluk states. Many scholars have relied on his books. Among the most important books of ʿIzz al-Dīn b. Shaddād is the history of al-Malik al-Ẓāhir. Some pages of this book contain valuable information about the Ḥafṣid state in the seventh century AH / thirteenth century AD, specifically the era of sultan al-Mustanṣir al-Ḥafṣī, who was contemporary with the period of al-Ẓāhir Baybars.
These pages have not been analysed by the scholars of the history of the Islamic Maghreb. Consequently, this research analyses these pages.
