Editing Musa ibn Nusayr (section)

==Death==
Musa died naturally while on the [[Hajj]] pilgrimage with Sulayman in about the year 715–716. Because of his disgrace, and the misfortunes of his sons, there was a tendency among medieval historians of the [[Maghreb]] to attribute his deeds (the conquest of [[Tangiers]] and the [[Sous]]) to [[Uqba ibn Nafi]].<ref>See, for example, article by Ahmed Benabbès cited below which analyzes this tendency. Brunschvig, cited below, has stated that medieval historians could be divided into those ''for'' or ''against'' Musa.</ref>

The Moroccan peak [[Jebel Musa, Morocco|Jebel Musa]] is named for Musa bin Nusayr according to the 14th-century Berber Muslim geographer [[Ibn Battuta]].<ref name="htn">Norris, H.T. (1959), "Ibn Battutah's Andalusian Journey", ''The Geographical Journal''.</ref>

[[Al-Bakri]] in his ''al-Maslik wa al-Mamalik'', mentions that Musa Ibn Nusayr was buried in [[Zaragoza]].<ref>{{cite book|last1=al-Bakri|title=المسالك والممالك (al-Masalik wa al-Mamlik)|date=c. 1048}}</ref>
