Interesting fact
The Kharijite dynasty, also known as the Idrisid dynasty, was a Muslim dynasty that ruled over the western Maghreb region (present-day Morocco) from 788 to 985 AD. The dynasty was founded by Idris I, who was a descendant of the Prophet Muhammad and a prominent religious leader. The Kharijite dynasty was known for its religious tolerance and its support of the arts and sciences. Many notable scholars and poets emerged from this period, and the dynasty's capital city, Fez, became a center of learning and culture. I hope you find this information helpful and interesting!
