چکیده:
In the fifth volume of the book Al-Ibar wa al-Ta'rif, Ibn Khaldun provides a relatively detailed account of the Mongols and Tatars—from the emergence of Genghis Khan, his victories in the East and West, and the history of his descendants up to Hulagu and Timur. In Al-Ibar, he has bridged the gap between the date of Genghis Khan's death and the period of silence and the date of Genghis Khan's reign. He has advanced the history of the Tatars and Mongols up to the time of Genghis Khan's greatest successor, namely Timur. Most of Ibn Khaldun's accurate information about Timur is the result of his contact with Timur in the year 803 AH in Damascus. He has provided a general image of Timur's personality, which is the first detailed description of Timur. Ibn Khaldun utilized oral and written sources in writing the history of the Mongols. Regarding his oral sources, it must be said that he himself has repeatedly stated that he derived his material from merchants, travelers, and scholars who had returned from Central Asia, China, Khwarazm, or Khorasan and whom he met in Cairo or Damascus.
