  • The History of al-Ṭabarī Vol. 26
    Carole Hillenbrand
    The years 738-745/121-127, which this volume covers, saw the outbreak in Syria of savage internecine struggles between prominent members of the Umayyad family, which had ruled the Islamic world since 661/41.

  • The History of al-Ṭabarī Vol. 18
    Michael G. Morony / Michael GMorony
    This volume presents for the first time in English Ṭabarī’s complete account of the twenty-year long reign of the fifth caliph, Muʿāwiyah (661-680). The importance of this account lies partly in Ṭabarī’s quotation of major portions of the work of earlier authors, such as Abu Mikhnaf and other eighth-century compilers.
