About Muhammed VIII, Sultan of Granada
Abu Abd Allah Muhammad VIII (1410-1431) was a Nasrid ruler of the Emirate of Granada. He was also known as "al-Saghir" or "el Pequeno", a reference to his youth when he took the throne. His two brief reigns took place amid intense dynastic factionalism and external pressure from Castile and Aragon. The son of Yusuf III, he ascended the throne as a minor under the regency of the vizier al-Amīn but was deposed in 1419 by his kinsman Muhammad IX with the backing of powerful aristocratic factions, notably the Banu l-Sarraj.
