The Interpretation of Dreams in Ad-Damīrī's Ḥayāt Al-Ḥayawān
All over the Orient dreams have ever been regarded as divine revelations, and the interpretation of them has developed into a distinguished branch of study. Islām, too, has ever attributed a great importance to dreams, especially under Jewish and Stoic influences. Muḥammad's revelation started with visions while he was asleep, and Qur'ān and Ḥadīth contain plenty of allusions to the significance of dreams. Small wonder that the interpretation of …
Ibn al-Jauzī's Handbook on the Makkan Pilgrimage
The duty of the pilgrimage to the sanctuary of the Ka'ba ( ḥajj ), as imposed by Qur'ān 3: 91 on every Muslim, has been expounded in all the collections of traditions ( ḥadī th ) and all the textbooks of canonical law ( fiqh ). Historians dealt with the institution of the pilgrimage, and geographers described the sacred cities of Makka and Madīna as well as the surrounding country of al-Ḥijāz. The traditional and topical information about the pil…
Adh-Dhahabī's “ Ta'rīkh al-islām ” as an Authority on the Mongol Invasion of the Caliphate
Scarcely ever has Islām experienced more tragical times and more hardships than during the Mongol invasion in the course of the thirteenth century a.d. With the despite of the nomads, practitioners of the open-air life, for sedentary occupations, the people of Jengis Khān turned against and mercilessly destroyed the towns and works of civilization everywhere. Their disastrous campaign was only facilitated by the decomposition of the political uni…

A History of the Caliphate in the Ḥayāt al-ḥayawān of ad-Damīrī
Owing to the voluminousness of the great Arabic works on general history, from the fourth century A.H. onwards many abridgments were made from them by both the authors of the large works themselves and later hands. These concise works contain a brief survey of the history of Islām as is seen in the Kitāb duwal al-islām of adh-Dhahabī or an enumeration oxf the illustrious persons of a longer period as is seen in the Tabaqāt al-huffāz of the same a…
A Qaṣīda on the Destruction of Baghdād by the Mongols
Hardly ever has Islam survived a more disastrous and more mournful event than the destruction of Baghdād by the Mongols of Hūlāghū Khān in the middle of the month of al-Muharram of the year 656/January, 1258. The Mongol conqueror, after having subdued the Assassins, turned against the capital of the 'Abbāsids and captured it without any resistance. The fall of the 'Abbāsid caliphate was followed by a veritable reign of terror which lasted for for…
The Ta'rīkh al-islām of adh-Dhahabī
In Arabic literature there is hardly any separation between works on political history and historical biography. This is due to the two sources from which historical traditions are derived: the sīra -literature dealing with the life of the prophet Muḥammad and the rather legendary traditions on the tribal warfare of the jāhiliyya known as ayyām al-'arab . It was on this double basis that Arabic historiography had gradually been built up. On the o…
The “Kitāb al-muntaẒam” of Ibn al-Jauzī
It is at a relatively late date that the writing of history begins in the Arabic literature. The Arabs of the earliest period of Islām seem to lack all historical sense, and their theologians proved entirely hostile to historical studies. The impetus towards such investigations was not given until the second half of the second century A.H., when, under the ‘Abbāsides, the Arabs came into close touch with the Sāsānides, whose political ideas and c…
