The earliest surviving account of the Mohammedan conquest of Egypt
and the west, The History of the Conquest of Egypt, North Africa,
and Spain, also known as the Futuh Misr, was originally divided
into seven books. A comprehensive history, including the
characteristics and background of Egypt, the Muslim conquest of the
country, and its rebuilding under new leaders, the author used
numerous sources and oral accounts to compile the history. The work
is presented in its original Arabic, in traditional right-to-left
format. Also included is the original 1922 introduction from
Charles C. Torrey, American historian and Semitic expert from Yale
University. IBN 'ABD AL-HAKAM was born in 187 A.H. and died in A.D.
871 (year 257). One of the first historians to construct a
Mohammedan history from the unreliable oral and written sources
common in his era, Al-Hakam was from a reputable and well-respected
family, renowned in the many branches of Hadith (narrations
concerning the prophet Mohammed) and Fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence).
This made Al-Hakam one of the most qualified individuals to compile
and record the Muslim tradition in Egypt in his day.
