Abd Allah ibn Buluggin
Abd Allah ibn Buluggin was the last Zirid king of the Taifa of Granada, ruling from 1073 to 1090 while his brother Tamim held Málaga. Caught between Alfonso VI of Castile, to whom he paid tribute, and the Almoravids, he was deposed by Yusuf ibn Tashfin in 1090 and exiled to Aghmat in Morocco, where he wrote a memoir that is a major source for the taifa period.
