Soft cover. Condition: New. Nur Al 'Uyun Fi Talkhis Sirat al-Amin al-Ma'mun (S) The Light of the Eyes A concise biography of the trustworthy and reliable Prophet (PBUH) By Imam Abul-Fath Muhammad Ibn Muhammad ibn Sayyid an-Nas (671-734 / 1273-1334) Translators: Bilal Patel & Mariam Madge Conlan Paperback 96 Pages Size : 21.5 x 14.2 cm ISBN: 9781906949112 Publisher: Turath Publishing (2016) About The Book Great historical personalities are inevitably popular subjects for biography and a cursory glance at a list of biographies composed about the Prophet Muhammad SAW will confirm him, by universal consensus, as the greatest personality of all time. One of whom model Muslims today are commanded to follow and obey. While other biographical literature varies in regards to authorship, authenticity, length, breadth of detail, and historical, cultural, and religious perspective, this work attempts to assimilate the most beneficial aspects of all these features. Both concise and comprehensive, it relies heavily on rigorously authenticated (sahih) and fully referenced sources, and is brimming with knowledge that 'delights the soul and adorns the pages'. Its Arabic edition has consequently achieved the deserved status of an indispensable manual for both the adept and budding student of knowledge. We pray that this English version will prove equally beneficial.

First Edition
8vo (160 x 247 mm). 2 parts in one volume. (4), XIX, (1), 127, (1); (4), 52 pp. With 5 lithographed folding plates. Slightly later red half morocco over marbled boards. Blue marbled endpapers. Rare first edition of the Arabic text, with the first translation into French and editor's notes, of Omar Khayyam's "Risala fi'l barahin 'ala masa'il al-jabr wa'l-muqabala" ("Treatise on the Demonstration of Problems concerning Algebra"), an important work on algebra probably completed in 1079 CE. - "As far as is known, al-Khayyami was [.] the first to demonstrate that a cubic equation might have two roots [.] As F. Woepcke, the first editor of the Risala, has shown, al-Khayyami followed a definite system in selecting the curves upon which he based the construction of the roots of all fourteen types of third-degree equations [.] His studies on the geometrical theory of third-degree equations mark al-Khayyami's most successful work" (DSB VII, p. 329). - Edited from the "text of both Paris MSS and of the Leiden MS" (DSB) by the German orientalist, physicist and mathematician Franz Woepcke (1826-64), who began studying Arabic manuscripts at the initiative of Alexander von Humboldt. He qualified as professor at Bonn in Arabic and Astronomy but spent most of his career in Paris. - Binding a little rubbed and front hinge weakened; interior shows occasional insignificant foxing but altogether well preserved. - From the collection of the French orientalist Bernard, Baron Carra de Vaux (1867-1953) with his bookplate to pastedown and handwritten ownership to the French title-page. Small bookseller's ticket of W. Heffer & Sons, Ltd., Cambridge to pastedown. Later handwritten ownership of the American Arabist James A. Bellamy (1925-2015) to title-page. - GAL I, 471 (620), 1.
