King Abdulaziz Library Exhibits Rare Andalusian Manuscripts
King Abdulaziz Public Library highlights the rich Andalusian heritage through a rare collection of books and manuscripts that cover the history of Al-Andalus from the beginning of the Islamic conquest in 92 AH until the fall of Granada in 1492 AD. Its holdings include 84 titles in Arabic and foreign languages such as Spanish and English, featuring rare historical, literary, and artistic works related to Andalusian civilization. Among these is the book "Al-Akhbar al-Arab fi Isbania" (The News of the Arabs in Spain), considered an important historical document from the 17th century. The library also possesses rare manuscripts of notable Andalusian figures like Abu Al-Baqa Al-Rundi and Ahmed Al-MQri, in addition to a global manuscript titled "Images of Spain," which depicts the landmarks of Al-Andalus. This collection underscores ongoing efforts to preserve the rich heritage of Arab and Islamic history.
