Abu Faris al-Mustansir Abd al-Aziz ibn Ali (Шаблон:Lang-ar) was the Marinid Sultan of Morocco from 1366 until his death in 1372. He assumed the throne at a time when Marinid authority was in decline, but during his rule managed to reverse this trend. After his death the kingdom returned to anarchy.
