ON MUSLIM HISTORY AND ON PRESENT CONDITION OF MUSLIM WORLD. III. ON MUSLIM TRADITIONS AND LAW. IV. ON MUSLIM THEOLOGY, PHILOSOPHY AND MYSTICISM. I BOOKS AND ARTICLES, GENERAL AND FUNDAMENTAL, FOR THE STUDY OF ISLAM The non-Arabist will gain much insight into Muslim life and thought by reading such translations as that of Ibn Khallikan by De Slane (Paris-London; 1843-71), the Persian Tabari, by Zotenberg (Paris; 1867-74), Ibn Batuta by Defrémery and Sanguinetti (Paris; 1853-58), Mas‘udi by C. Barbier de Meynard and Pavet de Courteille (Paris; 1861-77), Ibn Khaldun’s _Prolégomènes_ by De Slane (Paris; 1862-68), ad-Dimishqi by Mehren (Copenhagen; 1874), al-Beruni’s _Chronology_ by Sachau (London; 1879). The translations and notes in De Sacy’s _Chrestomathie arabe_ (Paris; 1826) can also be used to advantage. Very many valuable articles will be found scattered through the _Zeitschrift_ of the German Oriental Society (hereafter ZDMG), the _Journal asiatique_ (hereafter JA), the _Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society_ (hereafter JRAS) and the Vienna _Zeitschrift für die Kunde des Morgenlandes_ (hereafter WZ). It is always worth while to consult the _Encyclopædia Britannica_. The best translations of the Qur’an into English are those by E. H. Palmer (2 vols., Oxford; 1880) and J. M. Rodwell (London; 1871). The first more perfectly represents the spirit and tone, and the second more exactly the letter. The commentary added by Sale to his version and his introduction are still useful.
