Another excerpt from a Bibliographic Essay entitled: ISLAMIC AND CHRISTIAN SPAIN
IN THE EARLY MIDDLE AGES
by Thomas F. Glick:
"....He asserts that, for example, the early sources concerning the Islamic invasion were written by non-Hispanized Arabs who were prone to accept fables as true, while the later chronicles were infused with realism and reason because they were written by "Islamic historians, either of Spanish origin or already saturated with Hispanism."
Example sentence(s):- The "Learned King" made systematic attempts to approrpiate and Hispanize Arabic culture.

Hispanization is the process by which a place or a person absorbs characteristics of Hispanic society and culture. Hispanization of a place is illustrated by, but not limited to, Mexican restaurants, tortilla factories, panaderias (bakeries), taquerias (taco restaurants); Spanish language churches, newspapers, radio stations, as well as specialty music stores, clothing stores. Hispanization of a person is illustrated by, but not limited to, speaking Spanish, making and eating Latin food, listening to Spanish language music, dressing in Santa Fe style or other Hispanic styles, and participating in Hispanic festivals and holidays.
Hispanization is the opposite of assimilation. Assimilation is the process by which a minority culture absorbs characteristics of the dominant society and culture. In the United States Anglo culture has long been the dominant culture and, historically, U.S. immigrants have assimilated by the third generation.

In this context, we are talikng about common customs and traditions came into being between the Arabs and the Spaniards. So, the two races have met halfway. The citation of أسبنة here is mentioned as researchers being carried away in description of the state-of-the-art in Andalusia at that time. That's why I used 'spanization' as a term carrying less cultural depth. HTH

'Hispanization' imparts more racial connotation which is not the tone of the discourse as I think.
