Yusuf ibn al-Sayrafi
Yusuf ibn al-Sayrafi was a historian from Al-Andalus, and secretary of the Almoravid sultan Tashfin ibn Ali.
al-Sayrafi was born in Granada. He wrote a chronicle on the Almoravids, Al-Anwar al-Jalliya fi akhbar al-dawla al-Murabitiyya in which he dealt with the history of al-Andalus and the Maghreb in general and of his native Granada. Almost nothing of this work has survived, but it is quoted by other historians such as Ibn al-Khatib and ibn Idhari.
