Abridged Al-Bidayah wa Al-Nihayah

This book is a carefully abridged and edited version of one of the greatest references in Islamic history: the monumental encyclopedia "Al-Bidayah wan-Nihayah" by Imam Ibn Kathir. This concise edition follows two main paths: the first begins with the "Beginning" of creation, the stories of prophets, leading up to the prophetic biography. The second path documents a rich timeline of historical events and Islamic dynasties up to the Mamluk era. Published by Al-Tadween Al-Arabi, this edition omits repetitions and unverified narratives, presenting the core of history in a smooth literary style that preserves its scientific value.

Because it provides a comprehensive and deep panoramic view of human and Islamic history without having to dive into the massive original volumes. It links historical events with divine laws, making the reading of history both an intellectual pleasure and a profound lesson.

For every reader wishing to possess the keys to human and Islamic history in an accessible volume, for researchers seeking refined and verified historical facts, and for lovers of authentic stories of great figures.
