The history of Muslim historiography began with oral traditions in pre-Islamic Arabia, focusing on poetry and genealogy. With the rise of Islam, historical awareness expanded through the Quran, Hadith literature, and documenting the Prophet Muhammad’s life (Sirah). During the Umayyad and Abbasid periods, historians like al-Tabari (838-923 CE) emphasized rigorous sourcing in works such as history of the Prophets and Kings. The Golden Age (year 750-1258 CE during Abbasid Caliphate) introduced critical analysis, notably through Ibn Khaldun’s Muqaddimah (1377 CE), which examined social factors in history. In the following centuries, regional histories emerged, reflecting local cultures, while the modern era saw a re-evaluation of narratives influenced by colonialism and Western methodologies. Overall, Muslim Historiography has evolved from oral traditions to a rich written tradition, shaped by a complex interplay of religion, culture, and politics.
