His tomb

The Tomb of Abu Bakr is in a desolate forest called the Dak forest in Northern Morocco not far from a village called Ayn al-Hadeed in the Larache province.

Persecution

As Sayyids in Morocco suffered from the persecution by the Miknasa of Fez, as narrated by the judge Muhamad Bin Ali Hashlaf Al-Jazairi; Abu Bakr and all families that descend from Ali ibn Abi Taleb sought refuge in mountains like Jabal al-Alam and were far to reach and therefore did not get their share properly in Moroccan history in terms of exactitudes of their timelines.
