The Historical Thought of Ibn Tawoos Al-Sayed Radhi Al-Ddin Ali bin Musa bin Jaafar

Abstract

Researchers in history and its sciences used to rely on the oldest sources close to the era of the event to be sources of their information, and the sources that their owners devoted to writing history, and they seldom search for their historical trail among the corridors of other sciences, such as language, literature, jurisprudence, philosophy or others.While these books often carry among their folds, considerable historical narratives may be neglected by some historians. The owners of these books are not considered among the historians, because the narratives that I deposit their books were not among their goals in the first place, but they came as evidence for their opinions.Hence, this study came in the search for the historical thought of a jurist from the sixth and seventh centuries AH, to serve as an aid to those who wanted to research the history of historical periods. We do not claim a complete extrapolation of all his historical ideas, in order to leave the door open to those who wanted to expand on that, because some of its effects did not arrive, or at least not available to the researcher, but they are glimpses required by the nature of such research.
