Sinopsis

Aún no disponible en español — se muestra la versión en inglés.

The Tarikh i Yamini, or Kitab i Yamini is an Arabic-language chronicle of the reigns of Sebuktigin and Mahmud of Ghazni, written by Muhammad ibn Abd al-Jabbar al-Utbi. Written as a panegyric in rhymed prose, it narrates the whole of the reign of Sebuktigin, and part of that of Mahmud, up to year 410 Hijra (1020 AD). The Tarikh Yamini also contains information chronicling Sultan Mahmud's expeditions as well as the end of the Samanid Empire. Al-Utbi, being Mahmud's secretary, did not accompany the sultan, therefore his topography is deficient and his writing style consists of an explicit orthodox nature. He also states that he intentionally suppressed many events, unnatural or strange that he found skeptical that did not fit the objectives he had set down in the preface.
