The Imider valley is their zone of influence; Beaurpère notes that they took it from the Aït Ounir. Spillmann attributes to them a Maʿqil Arab origin, without proof, and reports that the Aït Khebbach are said to have entered the confederation under their sponsorship. Their notable Mohaddach, son of El Hajj Faska, was the Glaoui's man in the upper Dadès and the Todgha; in 1933 Aït Bou Iknifen fought in the auxiliary harkas, while other families of the same group were among the defenders of the Saghro.
