Okay,I search a lot about The Presence of Arabs/Muslims in Medieval Britain,and I couldn't find a lot of informations,I am totally aware that it was impossible for muslims to settle in Medieval Western Europe/England because of differents reasons.
However my question is not about Settlings communities,I just want to know if there was ever an arab that had reached Medieval Britain,by example,The Arabs controlled Medieval Iberia or al Andalus,were there any arabs/Muslims from Andalus that went from there to Medieval Britain,for whatever reason(Commerce,Diplomacy,tourist)...?Also,I read that there were viking from as far as sweden/Ireland that went to baghdad as merchants,so Was there also arabs from baghdad that that go to Medieval Ireland/Sweden as merchants?
There was a trade in tin to the Mediterranean region from prehistoric times.
To quote Dr. Caitlin Green FSA
The first account to be considered here is a short but intriguing section from the early fourteenth-century Taqwīm al-buldān, 'Survey of the countries' (1321), of Abū l-Fidāʾ, a Syrian prince of the Ayyūbid family, which offers both a general description of England and a short but intriguing section detailing the export of tin from England to Alexandria, Egypt, via southern France. The section that deals generally with England is explicitly derived from the earlier work of Ibn Saʿīd al-Maghribī, who was born born near Granada in 1213, lived for a time in Egypt, and died in 1286, and runs as follows: And the islands of Britain are eleven islands. Of the famous islands is the island of England (Inkiltarah). Ibn Saʿīd said: And the ruler of this island is called al-Inkitār in the History of Salāḥ ad-Dīn (Saladin) in the wars of ʿAkkā (Acre). His capital in this island is the city of Lundras (London). He continued: And the length of this island from south to north, with a slight inclination, is 430 miles. Its width in the middle is about 200 miles. He continued: And in this island are mines of gold, silver, copper, and tin. There are no vines because of the sharpness of the frost. Its inhabitants bring the precious metals of these mines to the land of France, and exchange them for wine. The ruler of France has plentiful gold and silver from that source. In their country (sc. England) is made the fine scarlet cloth from the wool of their sheep, which is fine like silk. They place coverings over the animals, to protect them from rain, sun, and dust. In spite of the wealth of al-Inkitār and the extent of his kingdom, he admits the sovereignty of al-Faransīs (the French king), and when there is an assembly, he performs his service by presenting before (the ruler of France) a vessel of food, by ancient custom.
