Fī al-tārīkh al-ʻAbbāsī wa-al-Fāṭimī is a classical arabic literature first published in 1971 by the contemporary author Aḥmad Mukhtār ʻAbd al-Fattāḥ ʻAbbādī. Indexed in KitabiHub under Classical Arabic Literature, History & Biography, Literary Criticism, The Arab World, Modern Arabic Fiction, it sits alongside other classical arabic literature on the same shelf.
Like much of the Arabic literary tradition, Fī al-tārīkh al-ʻAbbāsī wa-al-Fāṭimī rewards close reading: its rhythms reach back to a thousand years of poetry and rhetoric, while its concerns — exile, memory, the city, the desert, the relationship between the writer and the political moment — speak directly to the present. Readers approaching the book without prior background will find the description above a useful entry point; those already familiar with Aḥmad Mukhtār ʻAbd al-Fattāḥ ʻAbbādī's work will recognise the recurring preoccupations.
