Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Maqqari (circa 1578--1632) was an Arab historian who wrote one of the oldest histories of Muslim Spain. He was born in Tlemcen, in present-day Algeria, and at times lived and worked in Morocco and in Egypt. His most important work, Nafḥ aṭ-ṭīb (The breath of perfume), consists of two parts. The first is a compilation from many authors on Andalusia and its history, including descriptions of the main Andalusian cities and the lifestyles of their peoples. The second part is a biography of the famous writer, historian, and politician from Arab Spain, Ibn al-Khatib (1313--74). A grand minister and a poet whose lyrics are sung by Arab singers to the present day, al-Khatib wrote more than 60 books.
