As the chancellor of the Umayyad Caliphate of Córdoba and ''hajib'' (chamberlain) for the weak Caliph Hisham II, Almanzor was the ''de facto'' ruler of Islamic Iberia. Born in an ''alqueria'' on the outskirts of Torrox to a family of Yemeni Arab origin with some juridical ancestors, ibn Abi ʿĀmir left for Córdoba when still young to be trained as a ''faqīh''. After a few humble beginnings, he joined the court administration and soon gained the confidence of Subh, mother of the children of Caliph Al-Hakam II. Thanks to her patronage and his own efficiency, he quickly expanded his role. During the caliphate of Al-Hakam II, he held se ...

They became slaves of another slave named Mufaris who was chief of police in the palace of Almanzor in the Medina Azahara. There are no records until 1010, when they became administrators of irrigation of Valencia and were responsible for the water supply and food supply of the city. As the result of a military coup, of which the details have been lost, they became joint rulers of Valencia in 1010. Their administration was known for collecting 120,000 dinars of taxes a month, which was an extremely large sum at the time. Mubarak died in a riding accident in 1018, and shortly thereafter Muzaffar was killed in an uprising. They were succeeded by Labib al-Saqlabi, also a former slave, who had bee ...
