Imam at-Tabari spent 12 years writing this encyclopaedia on Islamic
history. His job was not easy for he had to collect and compile the material
from different sources. He had to rely on oral reports as well to complete his
encyclopedia.
His encyclopedia, 'Annals of the Apostles and Kings', chronicled the History of
Islam year by year; an attempt to categorize history from creation till the year
915 A.C. By the time he had finished his work, he had gathered all the
historical traditions of the Arabs in his voluminous work. The Muslim world was
not slow in showing its appreciation, and this work became more famous than his
Commentary of the Holy Qur'an, for there was no other works like that in
existence at that time.
It is reported that there were at least 20 copies of his encyclopedia in all
great libraries in the Muslim world of those days. Hundreds of copyists earned
their living copying his work for use of individuals and libraries. Many of his
original works were lost over the passage of time. It was only in the end of the
last century that modern scholars pieced together his work so that it could be
studied by students in modern times.

About Imam At-Tabari
In the ninth
century A.C, Islamic learning was at its peak. Muslim scholars and scientists
excelled in their learning and achievements in different fields. Abu Jafar
Muhammad ibn Jarir at-Tabari surpassed them all. Learned in hadith literature,
he also studied many other subjects to further his knowledge of the Holy Qur'an
and the religion of Islam. During the end of his days, he was known as a
commentator on the Holy Qur'an, an expert in Islamic Jurisprudence (Fiqh), and
as a famous historian. He was also the author of many books; the most famous of
them was his Tafseer of the Holy Qur'an and the other was his encyclopaedia on
Islamic history.
At-Tabari was born in the city of Amul, in Tabaristan, a mountainous region
lying south of the Caspian Sea in the year 839 A.C. Amul had been built on the
banks of a river, and the nearest port was a place called Humm, which was at the
mouth of the river.
Imam at-Tabari died at the age of 85 in the year 923 A.C.
