Tabari - al-abarī (English spelling)

A representative historian and Quran scholar of the Abbasid period. Born in Amr, Tabaristan, northern Iran, he died in Baghdad. Renowned as a genius from an early age, he aspired to study at a young age and went to Baghdad to study. After studying under many scholars, he traveled to various places and cities, including Kufa, Syria, and Egypt, where he interacted with great scholars and collected a vast amount of traditions of all kinds that were handed down in each place. After returning to Baghdad, he devoted himself to writing, and wrote his masterpieces, "History of the Prophets and Kings" (Great Annals) and "Tafsir" (Interpretation of the Quran). The former is a representative work of classical Islamic historiography, chronicling the history of Western Asia and the Islamic world from the creation of the world to his time.

アッバース朝時代の代表的歴史家、コーラン学者。イラン北部タバリスターンのアームルに生まれ、バグダードで死去。幼少時から天才の誉れ高く、若くして学問の道を志し、バグダードに留学した。多くの学者に師事したのち、クーファ、シリア、エジプトなど各地、各都市に旅行し、碩学(せきがく)と交わり、各地に伝わるあらゆる種類の膨大な伝承を収集した。バグダードに帰還後、著述活動に専念し、代表作『諸預言者と諸王の歴史』(大年代記)、『タフスィール』(コーラン解釈)などを著した。前者は古典的イスラム史学を代表する作品で、世界の創造から彼の時代までの西アジア、イスラム世界の歴史を年代記的に叙述したものである。
