jews have settled in areas of mordern morocco which was under the roman empire since 70CE.The jews were so prosperous dat the church was jelous of them. By the end of 7th century after the arab conquest their misery knew no bound.though they were largly acepted by the 1st and 2nd monarch IDRISS 1&2 the rest were genarally hostile,wicked and brutile.the jews under gen.benjamin ben joshaphat against the caliphate of bagdad.idriss 2 allowed the jews to stay in a special quater of fez (founded in 808AD) for 30,000 dinar. under the rule of the intolerant almohades many jews pretend to embrace islam but d prince Abu Yusuf Al mansur was not convinced of their sincerity and compelled them to were yellow head cover which exposed them to violence. During d persecution of jews in spain and portugal,manymore jews came into morocco theirby causing overcrowding and increase in price of basic amenities thereby causing anger among muslims and commiting great actrocities against the jews.

during the great pesecution of jews in spain and portugal many more jews emigrated into morocco leading to over population and increase in price of basic amenties which further anger the muslims leading them to commit great actrocities which lead to mass slaughter and rape.By 1956 when morocco gained independence their were over 300000 jews in morroco many jews held public office at that time.their was also mass emigration of jews to israel.as at today their are over 7000 jews in morocco
