Ibn Wasil misdated the earthquake to
A.H. 600 (10 Sept. 1203 – 28 Aug. 1204 CE). He wrote that a violent
earthquake “affected most regions of Egypt and Syria, the Jazira,
Bilad al-Rum [Byzantine territories], Sicily, Cyprus, Mosul, and Iraq,”
and added that “some say it reached Sibtat [Ceuta, Morocco].”
