Banu IsamThe Banu Isam were a Muslim Berber dynasty that ruled Ceuta for four generations. The town had been destroyed in a Kharijite rebellion, and was lying waste; sometime in the middle of the ninth century, Mjakas, chief of the Majkasa tribe, resettled it and founded a dynasty that ruled the town until the Umayyads took it over in 931. Its kings were: - Mjakas
- `Ism, son of Mjakas
- Majr, son of `Ism
- Rid, son of `Ism (?-931), who paid allegiance to the Idrisids, but surrendered the city to the Umayyads when the Idrisid capital fell.
