Settler administrators and outside churchmen clashed over Granada’s cultural practices.

Evidence

The Mond´ejars, already the second generation of viceregal administrators of the conquered land, had come to feel that they understood “their” Granada and its problems better than newly arrived outsiders. The viceregal dynasty was not concerned with what was by now to them familiar, even reassuring, no longer outlandish. But among churchmen and lawyers trained elsewhere, the old Granadan ways were an alien scandal not to be tolerated. — L. P. Harvey, Muslims in Spain, 1500 to 1614, 527
