Abstract

This article aims to emphasize same aspects of the Ibn ‘ Abdun work Risa¯lat fı¯ l-qa.da¯’ wa-l-hisba which transcend the useful purposes of this sort of treatises. As we try to argue, these aspects constitute actually a essay to restructure the Andalusí urban and civil power in the new political order caused by the almoravide presence in the peninsula.
