IV.—The K͟halīfate of Cordova in Spain was founded by a descendant of the deposed Umaiyah dynasty, ʿAbdu ʾr-Raḥmān ibn Muʿāwiyah. Muslim Amīrs had ruled at Cordova from A.D. 711, when T̤ārik and Mūsā came over from Africa and invaded Spain. But ʿAbdu ʾr-Raḥmān was the first to assume the title of K͟halīfah.
The following is a list of the K͟halīfahs of Cordova and Granada from A.D. 755 to the fall of Granada, A.D. 1492:—
1. ʿAbdu ʾr-Raḥmān I., A.D. 755.
(Cordova embellished and the Mazquita erected.)
2. Hishām I., A.D. 786.
