Tarikh al-Khulafa is a famous book written by Suyuti, the classic Islamic Scholar.In Tarikh al-Khulafah Suyuti used pieces & extracts from a number of earlier historic sources to provide a coherent history of the Caliphs who lead the Islamic civilizations from the death of the Prophet through to the contemporary world of Suyuti.
Tarikh al-Khulafah is praiseworthy for its selective compilation and editorial commentary rather than any particularly new content. It allowed for the preservation of a number of older texts which no longer remain extant and for this alone it is noteworthy. Furthermore, Suyuti’s work follows a structure that has informed most later views of the period.
