Moorish Sultan Abd Aziz Mules Hassan and the Harem Saga

The piece describes Muley Abd al Aziz as a legendary yet precarious Moorish sultan heir to a vanished imperial sphere. It recounts his lineage from Sultan Hassan through concubinage aided by merchant Briche, the harem’s inner politics, rakia and mina, and the 1878 birth of Rakha’s son who later becomes the Sultan Muay Abd-ul-Astz.
