Understanding al-Tabari’s Tarikh: A Case Study of Volume 6, Page 111

Al-Tabari, a 9th-century Persian scholar, embarked on the monumental task of chronicling the history of the world from the creation of Adam to the caliphate of the Abbasid period. His work, often simply called "The History of al-Tabari," is renowned for its detailed accounts, derived from a vast array of sources. This includes oral traditions, earlier written histories, and documents that have otherwise been lost to time. al tabari volume 6 page 111
