Mohammed ibn Adjurrum or Abu Abdallah Mohammed ibn Mohammed ibn Dawud ibn Adjurrum es-Sanhadji (1273–1323) was a famous grammarian from Morocco whose synopsis of Arabic grammar Al-Muqadimma al-Adjurrumiya fi Mabadi Ilm al-Arabiya (most commonly abbreviated to al-Ajurrumiyya) was published in twelve different European versions and editions. As his name indicates he was from Sanhadja origin, but little is known about his life, except that he died in Fez.[1]
