Overview
Abd al-Malik al-Muzaffar, son of al-Mansur ibn Abi Amir. 2
In the Maghrib
Al-Maqqari reports that his father sent him to the Maghrawa kings in Fez, of the house of Khazar. When he became angry with Zirí ibn Atiyya, he struck him in 386 AH, entered Fez and took its rule. 2 He appointed the Zanata kings over the lands and provinces of the Maghrib, from Sijilmasa and elsewhere, and drove Zirí out to Tahart. 2
Return to Cordoba
He then returned to Cordoba and appointed Wadih as governor of the Maghrib, and after his father he held the office of chamberlain in the same manner. 2
