Description
This history of the Mazru'i family, who ruled Mombasa for more than 100 years up to 1837, is published here in an English translation, together with the original Arabic text.It was written by the late Shaykh Al-Amin bin 'Ali Al Mazru'i, formerly Chief Qadhi of Kenya Colony, and embodies the oral Mazru'i family tradition, which stretches back beyond the evidence of English documents to the late seventeenth century.
