Abstract:
Andalusi families had a great role in the Islamic history in Andalus, especially those families which inhabited the upper defile for it is the region to the borders with the Christian kingdoms. All along this defile many events happened that positively and negatively impacted the Islamic state. Therefore, to know these borders we can simply tell the size of the challenges in the region and the role that the families played in stabilizing the region or violating discipline and order there. This is what urged us to choose the Qassi family to be the core of the study. This family hadn’t received historians and researchers' attentions. Thus, we couldn't find any study which shed light on this family. The present study highlighted this family's important political and martial role, for it affected the political arena at that time. It also focused on the social sides which were not free of some political dimensions. These reflected the prevalence of some states in the Andalusi society and the break of some families and fusion of family relations between Muslims and Christians which provoked many inquiries throughout the research like the bias of some families to the Christian kingdoms against Muslims. This applies to this family. Qassy family is one of the half - breed families in Andalus which played a great role in the political and martial events in the period of its prosperity. Many prominent figures appeared in this family like; Mohammed Bin Mousa, Mohammed Bin Lub BinMousa who fought many wars against the Umayyad authority and against some of the Christian kingdoms on the border lines of this family's authority. This study falls into three chapters preceded by an introduction and followed by conclusions and appendices. The first chapter deals with the geography of the Andulsian upper defile and areas of Qassy family's authority. It also refers to the conquer of the region and the family's upper grandfather entrance into Islam, as well as the family's first time emergence into the political events arena up to 180 A.H / 796 A.D. We referred to the population structure of the region; we displayed the most important Arab, Barbarian and Half - Breed tribes in the region. Chapter two deals with the Qassy family's political role. Where we referred to the family's relation with the government of Cordoba and the latter's relation with other half - breed families and its impact on the relation the Qassy family. We referred to the widening authority of Mousa Bin Mousa and his political relationship with the Christian kingdoms. In addition, we displayed political reasons behind marriage relationships with these Christian kingdoms. We also mentioned something about the conflict between family members because of areas of authority. Chapter three covers the Qassy family's martial role up to the end of their authority on the upper defile region. We tackled their martial conflict with the Muslims and Christians, and the reasons behind their conversion from being allies to the Navar kingdom to be enemies. We talked also about their role in stopping the Norman attack on Andalus during the reign of the Umayyad Emirate.
