Amrus ibn Yusuf

'Amrus ibn Yusuf al-Muwallad al-Laridi (Arabic: عمروس بن يوسف المولد, died 808/9 or 813/4) was a Muwallad (probably of Visigothic origin)[citation needed] general of the Emirate of Córdoba and governor of Zaragoza.

Amrus, a native of Huesca, and his kinsman Shabrit (Arabic: شبريط) were mawālī servants of Aysun ibn Sulayman al-Arabi, who was the son of the wali of Barcelona and Girona.

The kinsmen joined Aysun's brother when Matruh al-Arabi rebelled and entered Zaragoza.

In Muslim year 175 (AD 791/2), Amrus turned on his master, and he and Sarhabil ibn Saltan al-Zawagi attacked Matruh with swords, killing him.

His family, the Banu Amrus (Arabic: بنو عمروس), continued to be involved in the regional politics of the upper Ebro valley.
