Overview
Abu al-Abbas Ahmad ibn Abi Salim al-Marini, nicknamed al-Musta'in, son of Abu Salim of the Marinids. 1
He met his cousin the amir Abd al-Rahman at Wadi al-Naja and they swore to hold their hands together. Then he marched on the new city and besieged it until he entered it on the seventh of Muharram 776 AH. 1
Abd al-Rahman marched to Marrakesh and became independent there, and a peace was made between them in which Azemmour was the boundary. He appointed Muhammad ibn Uthman as vizier, and his relation with the sultan of al-Andalus, Ibn al-Ahmar, grew close. In his days Ibn al-Khatib was killed in Fez. 1
