Thank you Minerva and Zub for letting me be among the 5 chosen Excellent Blog Award. Also want to congratulate them for receiving it, hehehehe ...

Zub As I said this is not a cash prize, but to receive this award you have to "play" with 5 other excellent blogs that you think for some reason. You must also place the image of Excellent Blog Award. But I think the best of these awards is that through them we can find new blogs that may date to overlook us.

Wakeboard Tower Clamps

A story of betrayal, and Ibn Al-Ammar Mutamid

Maybe we could start by saying, boy meets boy y. .. but no, there is too much current is diverted from the purpose of having this betrayal . Let's start again

:
al-Mutamid was the second son of al-Mutadid of
Sevilla . He became heir and later king (1069-1091) because his father ordered the execution of his elder brother for alleged treason. When al-Mutamid
turned 12 his father sent him to be educacdo Silves by Ibn-Ammar, who had won the king's favor by writing a poem praising. Ibn-Ammar, who say it was a dark and ambitious character, the boy learned the pleasure of poetry and also insinuates that he discovered the pleasures of the flesh. The case is establishing a good friendship that lasted for years, they became inseparable, and the young al-Mutamid came to become vizier.
In 1058 al-
Mutamid found a girlfriend, who later became his wife, Rummaykiya , which was then called Itimad . Legend has it that he first saw on the bank of a river while playing with Ibn Ammar to complete verses, she was hidden there. Eventually

al-Mutamid Sevilla became a cultural and intellectual center very important and met there with great characters, but their relationship suffered ups and downs Ibn Ammar.

Ibn Ammar (who had gone very wrong with the finances) in 1078 borrowed money to Ramón Berenguer II Murcia to win and in return for your lender to see that he intended to return all borrowed, left him hostage al-Rashid a son of his "friend" al-Mutamid, all without that poor child's father knew it. When he learned of the treason, had to get his son back after paying a large sum, but Ibn Ammar Murcia finally conquering and being governor of it.

As if this were not enough, Ibn Ammar began plotting to secede from the Taifa of Seville, but was discovered and fled but was captured and brought before the king and former friend. Al-Mutamid

killed him with his own hands.

After execute a his old friend, things were not very well: his two eldest sons died in the war, he was banished with his wife ... And so in exile in Africa, ruined, spent his last years to poetry, hobby I joined both Ibn Ammar and wrote his best poems.
