Awlad Mandil or Banu Mandil were a ruling family of the Maghrawa, a Berber dynasty, that controlled several territories in North Africa approximately from c. 1160 to 1372. The Maghrawa were a prominent Berber tribe influential in the medieval history of the western Maghreb, with the Awlad Mandil family playing a key role in regional governance and politics during the later Almohad and Marinid periods.
History
Khazrun ben Falful is said to be the first ancestor of the Banu Khazrun, the ruling dynasty of Tripoli from 1001 to 1146. Several branches are said to originate from the Banu Khazrum, the main ones being the rulers of Tripoli and Chelif. This last one originated from Abu Nas, whose son was Ibn Abu Nas, from whom Mandil I descended, the Almohad governor of Chelif c. 1160. His son, Abd al-Rhaman ben Mandil also became governor of Chelif c. 1180.
Muhammad ben Thabit became the emir from 1294 to 1295 in the absence of his father. The Abdalwadid dynasty occupied their lands in 1295.
