Ibn Abi Zar
Abu al-Hasan Ali ibn Abi Zar al-Fasi (died between 1310 and 1320) was a Moroccan historian and scholar of Fes, the presumed author of the Rawd al-Qirtas. Written for Marinid sultan Abu Sa'id Uthman II, it chronicles the kings of the Maghreb and the history of Fes from Idris I in 788 down to the Marinids.
Divided into four parts, it became one of the most widely circulated medieval Maghrebi histories. Its authorship was long debated.
