Abstract EN

Historians gather their scholarly material for their works relying on various historical sources.

The historian IbnTeghriBerdi had historical sources different from other historians.

In his book “Al Nijoum Al Zahira fi MuloukMisrwalQahira” (“The Shining Stars on the Kings of Egypt and Cairo”), he relied on the State’s official documents such as correspondences between Sultans and their deputies in all provinces (Wilayat), oral resources, the observations he got from his participations in the events of his time or form other people participations in those events or from hearing or interrogation in addition to taking from written sources or former books.
