Mohammed abu Bakr ibn Ali al Sanhaji al Baydhaq (died after 1164) was a companion of Ibn Tumart and chronicler of the Almohads. Al Baydhaq (meaning pawn) was his nickname, because he was small in stature.

Title of his main work: Al moqtabass min kitabi al anssab fi maärifati al ashab (ca. 1150 )^[1]
