A Jewish Vizier

Among the Jewish families settled within the walls of Granada, Target Character has built a command of tribute, tax, and treaty, and an evident ease in the company of Christian and Muslim envoys alike, that has drawn the eye of our Ruler Title more than once this year.

Appointing him/her to high office would place a Jewish hand firmly on the machinery of a Muslim Court Title, an arrangement with true precedent across the long history of al-'Andalus, from the Umayyad caliphs onward, but one that the pious among our own Clergy, and the wider populace besides, will not welcome quietly, whatever service he/she might render the treasury.

historical_info = d009_convivencia.7.historical_info The most famous real precedent for a Jewish vizier in Muslim Iberia is Samuel ibn Naghrilla, who rose to become vizier of the Taifa kingdom of Granada in the 11th century, followed by his son Joseph, who held the same office until he was killed in a massacre of Granada's Jewish community in 1066. The Nasrid emirate that ruled Granada from the 13th century onward inherited a court culture where such appointments, while never uncontroversial, had historical footing.
