Awlad Muhammad

Awlad Muhammad (or Ouled Muhammed) was a tribe that ruled over the Fezzan region from 1550 to 1812.

[1][2] At their height, their domain extended from Sokna in the north to Murzuq in the south.

[3] Starting in 1577, the sultanate had to fend off against various attacks by the Ottoman and the Karamanli dynasty which often resulted in the looting, capture or vassilization of Fezzan.
