Tashfin ibn Ali, in attacking the Almohads, under the leadership of Abd al-Mu'min, in the Oran area, finds himself besieged for several days by the Almohad forces and finally opts for an escape by sea.
He subsequently calls on a fleet from Almeria, burns his military encampment and while trying to join the port by night on horseback, falls off a cliff and dies in March 1145.
He is succeeded first by his oldest son Ibrahim ibn Tashfin, who is still an infant, and will soon after be replaced by Tashfin’s brother, Ishaq ibn Ali.
