Abu Nour
Abu Nour bin Abi Qara al-Ifrani (Template:Langx; 1014–1058) was a Berber king of the Taifa of Ronda. He built the most important sites in Ronda.[1]
Life
Abu Nour belonged to the Banu Ifran. The Banu Ifran were part of the Taifa of Malaga until the death of Yahya ibn Ali ibn Hammud al-Mu'tali. After that Abu Nour established a new kingdom, the Taifa of Ronda in 1039.[2] Abu Nour established alliances with the surrounding tribes. When Template:Ill deposed his uncle, Template:Ill, from the throne of the Taifa of Malaga in 1046, Abu Nour helped Idris regain the throne.[3]
In 1053, Abbad II al-Mu'tadid invited Abu Nour along with Muhammad bin Noh al-Darimi of Morón and Abadoun bin Khazaroun of Arcos to Seville. Al-Mu'tadid killed Muhammad and Abadoun and imprisoned Abu Nour.[4] Abu Nour's son Template:Ill succeeded him as king of Ronda until 1057, when al-Mu'tadid released Abu Nour. Abu Nour returned to Ronda, put his son to death for misrule, and died shortly afterward, leaving the kingdom to his second son, Template:Ill.[5]
