Muhammad obtained his freedom and Christian support to recover his throne in 1487, by consenting to hold Granada as a tributary kingdom under the Catholic monarchs. He further undertook not to intervene in the Siege of Málaga, in which Málaga was taken by the Christians.

Following the fall of Málaga and Baza in 1487, Almuñécar, Salobreña and Almería were taken by the Christians the following year. By the beginning of 1491, Granada was the only Muslim-governed city in Iberia

Muhammad XI was the son of Abu l-Hasan Ali, Sultan of the Emirate of Granada whom he succeeded in 1482, as a result of both court intrigue and unrest amongst the population at large.

Muhammad XI soon sought to gain prestige by invading Castile, but was taken prisoner at Lucena in 1483. Muhammad's father was then restored as ruler of Granada, to be replaced in 1485 by his uncle Muhammad XII, also known as Muhammad al-Zaghal.

In December 1489, al-Zagal entered into agreements with the Catholic Monarchs, surrendering his territories and accepting a subordinate status in exchange for limited lands and financial compensation. In 1490, he obtained permission to leave the Iberian Peninsula and emigrated to North Africa, settling in Tlemcen where he died there in May 1494.

In 1485, amid continued warfare and internal instability, al-Zagal was proclaimed ruler in Granada. His reign was marked by ongoing conflict with both Castilian forces and the rival faction led by Boabdil. Although he achieved a victory at Moclín shortly after his accession, the broader military situation deteriorated as Castilian armies captured key towns and fortresses. At the same time, Boabdil, supported by Castile, gained control in parts of the emirate and renewed the civil war.

In 1487 Boabdil seized Granada while al-Zagal was engaged elsewhere. Al-Zagal withdrew to the eastern territories, including Guadix, Baza, and the Alpujarras, where he maintained an independent base of power and continued resistance. Despite some local successes, he was unable to halt the advance of Castilian forces. The prolonged siege and eventual surrender of Baza in 1489 marked a decisive turning point, leading to the collapse of his remaining position.
