Overview
Al-Maqqari says that the enemy entered Loja in 622 AH with the lord Abu Muhammad al-Bayyasi, in the strife between him and al-Adil. They did much corruption there, then the Muslims took it back, until it was taken afterwards. 1
What is not covered here: the details of the entry and the date of its final capture, which need an additional source.
