Kalila wa Dimna is the classic Arabic translation of the
Panchatantra collection of animal tales. There are recorded over
two hundred different versions known to exist in more than fifty
languages. After the Arab invasion of Persia, Ibn al-Muqaffa's
version (two languages removed from the pre-Islamic Sanskrit
original) emerged as the pivotal surviving text that enriched world
literature. Ibn al-Muqqaffa's work is considered a model of the
finest Arabic prose style, and "is considered the first masterpiece
of Arabic literary prose."
