al-Fadl

Al-Fadl was a Hafsid prince, a son of Caliph Abu Yahya Abu Bakr II and brother of Abu Ishaq Ibrahim II. His family lost Tunis in 1347 to the Marinid sultan Abu al-Hasan. The occupation did not last: the Black Death ravaged Hafsid lands in 1349, and rebellions forced him to leave Tunis by ship that December.

Early in 1350 Hafsid notables proclaimed him caliph at Béjaïa. His reign lasted only months: in July the chamberlain Ibn Tafragin raised Ibrahim II in his place and put him to death, then governed in the young Ibrahim's name.
