Al-Marrakushi is a small, relatively isolated lunar impact crater in the eastern Mare Fecunditatis. It is a circular, symmetrical formation, with inner walls that slope down to the mid-point. To the northeast is the prominent Langrenus crater. The maria near Al-Marrakushi is marked by ray material from its larger neighbor.
This crater was identified as 'Langrenus D' until it was given a name by the IAU. It was named after Ibn al-Banna al-Marrakushi (c. 1256 – c. 1321).
