Abstract
Emperor Alfonso VII of Leons peninsular relations were shaped by the relationship and struggles between both, the Christian realms of the inner borders, as well as those in the external borders against Islam. This paper aims to recreate the stratagems of alliance and jurisdiction over Muslim leaders in order to develop and establish jurisdiction through the use of space at the expense of the Taifa of al-Andalus. This is the case of the links established with the sovereign Sayf al-Dawla, the Zafadola of the christian chronicles.
