Jump to
Abd al-Rahman ibn Zaydan (Arabic: عبد الرحمن ابن زيدان) (1878–1946) was a Moroccan historian and literary author. He was a great-grandson of sultan Moulay Ismael and is considered one of the best sources on the history of his native city Meknes, but also on the Alaouite dynasty. After the installation of the French protectorate he accepted the function of vice-director of the military school of Dâr al-Bayda in Meknes, today's military academy of the city. The Ithaf, his main work of eight volumes, comprehends hundreds of biographies, like those of the sultans Abderrahman and Hassan I.
