The story begins Idrissides, when Shiite Arab prince of the family of Ali (the fourth Caliph of Islam), Idris Ibn 'Abd Allah al-Kamil and his freedman Ben Rachid El Morched Koreichi, took refuge in the Middle Atlas. Fleeing the threat of the Abbasids (who had massacred Alides and their supporters in the Shiite battle Fakh near Mecca), they stay in Egypt before moving to Walilah (Volubilis) under the protection of the Berber tribe Awarbas. Managing to rally the tribes to his cause, Imam Idriss is invested and founded the city of Fez in 789 under the name of Idris I. This is the beginning of the dynasty Idrissides.

Feeling cramped Walilah Idriss II left the ancient Roman city to Fez, where he founded Kairouan district on the left bank (Idris I had settled on the right bank, the Andalusian quarter). Kairouan is the powerful families from Eastern Arab and Arab-Persian (from Khorasan) established Ifriqya from the Abbasid era. They were expelled from Kairouan because of political persecution that they inflict Aghlabids. Andalusians who settled in Fez are in turn opponents of Umayyad Cordoba from the suburbs (including the suburb of Rabad, hence the name Rabadis assigned to elements of the first wave of immigration from Al -Andalus) 18. The kingdom knows Idrisid generally an important phase of urbanization, illustrated by the creation of new towns like Sale, Wazzequr and Basra, the latter inspired by the Basra Iraq.
