Biography
For the Egyptian author from the Fatimid era, see: Abu-l-Qasim Ali Ibn al-Sayrafi (d. 1147)
Yusuf ibn al-Sayrafi ( died c. 557/1161) was a historian from Al-Andalus, and secretary of the Almoravid sultan Tashfin ibn Ali (1143-45).
al-Sayrafi was born in Granada. He wrote a chronicle on the Almoravids, Al-Anwar al-Jalliya fi akhbar al-dawla al-Murabitiyya in which he dealt with the history of al-Andalus and the Maghreb in general and of his native Granada. Almost nothing of this work has survived, but it is quoted by other historians such as Ibn al-Khatib and ibn Idhari (especially in his al-Ihata fi akhbar gharnata).
