From Rabat to al-Quds: Eight Centuries of Moroccan Resilience in Jerusalem documents the enduring historical, spiritual, and cultural bond between Morocco and the Holy City. Drawing on archival sources, travelogues, and endowment records, the book traces the presence of Moroccan pilgrims, scholars, warriors, and settlers from the early Islamic period through the Ayyubid, Mamluk, Ottoman, and modern eras. It highlights the foundational role of Moroccan fighters in the liberation of Jerusalem under Salah al-Din, the establishment of the Moroccan Quarter as a waqf, and the influential contributions of Maliki jurists and scholars to the city’s religious and intellectual life. The narrative also examines the evolution of Moroccan custodianship, culminating in contemporary initiatives led by the Bayt Mal Al-Quds Asharif Agency. Through its rich documentation, the book affirms the depth, continuity, and cultural significance of the Moroccan–Jerusalem relationship, and its relevance to present-day heritage preservation and communal solidarity.
