The Book of Al-Fahrast 1-4 by Abu al-Faraj Muhammad ibn Ishaq al-Nadim, Yemen Fawad Sayed Al-Furqan Foundation for Islamic Heritage Book title: Al-Fahrast Author: Abu al-Faraj Muhammad ibn Ishaq al-Nadim (d. 438 AH) Reviewed with its sources and prepared for publication: Ayman Fawad Sayed Number of parts: 4 Publisher: Al-Furqan Foundation for Islamic Heritage - London The book "Al-Fahrast" by al-Nadim is the most important foundational bibliographic book, unprecedented, for the movement of monitoring and surveying the movement of authorship in the Islamic world, as it systematically reviews in ten articles the Arab Islamic intellectual production and the contributions of Muslim scholars to human civilization until the end of the 4th Hijri / 10th Gregorian century. This unique bibliographic book provides us with the first comprehensive view of Arab culture, which opened up to all intellectual currents. Western civilization did not know a similar book until the advent of printing at the end of the 15th century AD. The most notable feature of the new edition is the separation of the study from the book. In the first part of the independent publication, a complete and comprehensive study about al-Nadim and his book Al-Fahrast has been dedicated. The second part includes the book in its two volumes and indexes. The edition also highlights the correction of previous errors and the updating and modernization of information, taking into account the notes provided by the researcher from many scholars and friends.
