Ahmad al-Abbas was the last Sultan of the Saadi dynasty in present-day Morocco. He assumed power in Marrakesh in 1655 after the death of his father, Mohammed esh-Sheikh es-Seghir, and was assassinated in 1659 by his uncle, Abdul Karim Abu Bakr Al-Shabani.[1][2] His uncle assumed power until 1668 when the Alaouite leader Moulay Al-Rashid took control of the city.[3][4]:230
