An Account of the Establishment of the Fatemite Dynasty in Africa is a historical book written by al-Masudi, a renowned Arab historian. This book provides a detailed account of the Fatemite Dynasty's establishment in North Africa, which was a significant event in the Islamic world during the 10th century. The book covers the political and social conditions of the region before the Fatemite Dynasty's arrival, the events leading up to their establishment, and the dynasty's reign in Africa. Al-Masudi's writing style is engaging and informative, and he provides a wealth of information about the Fatemite Dynasty's origins, including their religious and political beliefs, their military campaigns, and their interactions with other Islamic states. This book is an excellent resource for anyone interested in Islamic history, African history, or the history of the Middle East.1840. The text is purported to Being the Annals of that Province from the Year of 290 of the Heg'ra to the Year 300 Extracted from an Ancient MS. Ascribed to El Mas'Udi, belonging to the Ducal Library of Saxe-Gotha. This period is remarkable for the subversion of the dominion of the Aglabites and of the independent principalities of Tahort and Seg'ilmasa, and for the establishment of the Fatemite dynasty on their ruins, an important and obscure era in Muhammedan history, and comprises almost the whole of those events by which the first establishment of the Fatemites was publicly marked, as it begins with nearly the earliest military operations of Abu Abdallah, and closes with the foundation of el Mahdia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
