Show moreEl-Khazraji, called Ibn Wahhas, was a Yemeni historian, who wrote under the Turkish Rasulid Dynasty in Yemen. He died late 812/early 1410, aged over 70. The biographical dictionaries give virtually nothing on his life, except Sakhawi, that states that he met him in Zabid. According to Hadjdji Khalifa, El-Khazraji wrote three histories of the Yemen, impelled, so he says, by the prevailing disregard for the study of history. This work is the best-known part of the one he wrote with events dynasty by dynasty. It is for earlier times very much a compilation, drawing on authors like Baha al-Dir al-Djand. The fulsome eulogies in it of the Rasulids, and his comparatively late date, have led G. R. Smith to compare it unfavourably as a source for Rasulid history with the earlier historian of the Yemen Badr al-Din Muhammad bin Hatim al-Hamadan. Volume I, Containing the first part of the translation -- volume II, Containing the second half of the translation -- volume III, Containing the annotations -- volume IV, Containing the first half of the Arabic text / edited by Shaykh Muḥammad Asal -- volume V, Containing the second half of the Arabic text. by Aliyyu'bnu'l-Ḥasan 'El-Khazrejiyy ; with translation, introduction, annotations, index, tables, and maps by the late Sir J.W.
