Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Dinar coin from the Tarafid dynasty is that it features an inscription in Arabic that translates to "There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah" on one side, and the name of the ruler, Bushri ibn 'Abd Allah al-Tarafi, on the other side. This inscription reflects the Islamic beliefs of the ruling dynasty and highlights the importance of religion in the region during that time period.
