Jews and Christians in Granada join forces …

Years: 1162 - 1162

Jews and Christians in Granada join forces in 1162 in an unsuccessful rising against the ruling Almohads, who permit only converts to Islam to live in the city.

Ibn Mardanish, ruler of the Moorish kingdom of Murcia and an important leader of the opposition to the Almohads during the 1150s, engages Almohad forces in 1162 near Granada, but his forces suffer defeat.
