Abu Ishaq Ibrahim I.
Abu Ishaq Ibrahim I ( Arabic أبو إسحاق إبراهيم, DMG Abū Isḥāq Ibrāhīm ; † 1283 ) was caliph of the Hafsids in Ifrīqiya (1279–1283).
During the power struggles that broke out under Yahya II. Al-Wathiq (1277-1279), Abu Ishaq Ibrahim I succeeded in overthrowing his father in 1279. In contrast to the other Hafsiden, he only had the title of emir and did not claim the caliphate for himself. When an uprising broke out in Constantine in 1283 , Ibrahim I was able to suppress it and also repel troops from Aragon that had landed at Collo . During his absence in Tunis , however, he was overthrown by his son Abd al-Aziz I (1283), who in turn was driven out by the usurper Ibn Abi Umara . When Ibrahim tried to take action against the usurper, he was defeated, captured and executed by him.
