عبد الرحمن الداخل
عبد الرحمن الداخل
Abd al-Rahman ibn Muawiya ibn Hisham the Umayyad 'al-Dakhil', who entered al-Andalus in 138 and seized it, the land remaining in his sons' hands past the year 400; a man of learning and justice with a Berber mother — 'the world is ruled by two sons of Berber women.' He took only the title amir, not Commander of the Faithful, as did his sons {cite:tarikh-khulafa-minhaj-1434 p. 423-425}.
