Fezפאס

Morocco

Fez (Fas), in north-central Morocco, was founded in the early 9th century by the Idrisid dynasty and became the political and intellectual capital of medieval Morocco, home to the Qarawiyyin mosque-university. The historian Ibn Khaldun (d. 1406) taught there for a period, and the Maliki jurist Ahmad al-Wansharisi (d. 1508), author of al-Mi'yar, was active in the city.
