The Almoravids (448-541 A.H./1056-1146 A.D.) : The
Almoravids were Berber descendants of the Limtunah, a tribe
of Sinhajah. They founded an Islamic state in Morocco and
ruled Andalusia and Tunisia. They were known for their
covered faces and were called Al-Murabitin for living in
secluded places for practicing acts of worship. Yusuf bin
Tashfin was the most famous among their Sultans. He founded
Marrakesh and made it the capital of his state. He defeated the
Franks and put an end to the rule of Muluk Al-Tawa'if (the
Kings of the Petty States). He left to `Ali, his son, a strong and
vast state, but it was eventually destroyed by Almohads.
