Without becoming a caliph -just 'Hayib' (chamberlain)- he ruled Al Andalus from 981 until his death in 1002: he administered the state, reformed the armies, undertook more than 50 wars against the Christian kingdoms and won them all... and became ,one of the most mythical figures of Al Andalus. In Torrox you will find a bust in his memory.
