Al-Fārisī and al-Yazīdī indicate descent from a Persian mawlā of Yazīd. Ibn Ḥazm spent most of the rest of his life wandering from city to city in al-Andalus. Ibn Ḥazm's own attitude to the ʿĀmirids is a puzzle. Some rivalry - indeed qualifies the elder Ibn Ḥazm as actually a minister of the elder ʿĀmirid. On the other hand, Ibn Ḥazm was also a vocal supporter - and by the time when he wrote Ṭawq had been a minister in the governments - of more than one Umayyad caliphal pretender, explicit and open enemies of the family of al-Manṣūr. Ibn Ḥazm was certainly capable of producing large and important works - the Fiṣal and the Muḥallā in particular demonstrates a capacity for that. The Naqṭ is the closest surviving text that we have from Ibn Ḥazm that is historical. Keywords:Ṭawq; al-Andalus; Ibn Ḥazm; mawlā; Naqṭ
