Abu al-Abbas Ahmad Ibn Abd as-Salam al-Jarawi (Arabic: أبو عباس الجراوي) (1133-1212) was the official poet of the Almohad dynasty. He published his poems in a diwan.[1] Ibn Idhari quotes 300 lines by Al-Jarawi in his Al-Bayan al-Mughrib. Little is known of him, except that he came from the Zenata tribe.
