The book burnings, the Arabs in Iran.

Libraries and کتابسوزی in Iran

On the Arab کتابسوزی Read this post from me. Also, the book “Two centuries of silence” And the sources of the story comes from the here Has moved:

Long was the subject of the book burnings and the behaviour of the Arabs with the Iranian culture had my mind busy, so I got on it in the field and didn't try to favour the research from reputable sources and books page with interest. the Arab invasion of the spiritual damage whatever is said and written is low. About the destruction and plunder of Iranians at the time of the Arab invasion of the famous Iranian Arabs, and historians such as : Ibn Khaldun , البلاذری , Masoudi , Ibn Hisham , Ibn hasm , بلعمی , ثعالبی , عدوی and شویس… Have written in the books of history. One of the گذارترین effect of the injuries to the language and culture of Iran. Because of the grandeur of their country, the Iranians had dominated the world for centuries and had an ancient civilization, and for this reason, intellectual science was very large and extensive in their eyes..

Ibn Khaldun that the most accurate and most of the great Arab historian and sociologist, is about the book-burning at the hands of the Arabs so says: ( Two centuries of silence P. 98 )"When Saad Ibn ABI oghas to مداین because the very sight of books found in hand. Letter to Omar Ibn addressed and wrote on these books wanted. Life in response to water his searchlight wrote that if what this کتابهاست cause is God sent us help tips and if it is not the Lord be گمراهی brick books we get rid of them in Aman.. This caused his books in the water or on the firing افکندند.»

Also in the book had been algheron as outer aburaihan الخالیه («35, 36, 48 ) So writes:"When قتیبه Ibn Moslem pilgrims went to khwarezm was commander and it is open to anyone who opened the line to Al-Khwarizmi wrote of the history of science and knowledge and the last news of the tail blade and his unwavering priests and killed people indiscriminately and هیربدان کتابهاشان all بسوزانید and spoiler.

Live learn Dr. زرینکوب in the book silence of the century 2 (Their publication 97, 96 p hotel) With rational analytical book review Suzy Arabs deals:"The influx of تازیان in doubt, many of the books and the library of Iran has undergone damage doomed. lawsuit proof from the dates can be very قرائن, and also outside it verifies . With all this, some of the people researching this Bob the skeptical and this doubt whether it is necessary?! For the word of the Quran but no Arab that magnitude did not know books that it was mjavs and of course the sight of what he was zlal at least it was useless to keep loving them? In the ritual of the Muslims it was an introduction to the line and the judging was very rare and suggests the extent to which such ethnic groups would have to be interested in books and libraries. Though all the evidence suggests that the Arabs of the Pahlavi literature books such as what has remained today from a slave not avail in this case does not place doubt in that it does not respect the sanctity of the seen and the book has seen…The names of many of the Sassanid Testament books in the books is that the name is not ونشانی of them…Suggests that the Muslim environment for existence and the survival of such books is not suitable and the destruction of books is also. Though all of the time suggests that in many books of Persians, Arabs has gone.»

Morteza ravandi at Iranian social history book (Volume II, page 50 )Writes, "is one of the works of the Arab حملهٔ and obnoxious to the literary and scientific works, and this was a canvas. They کلیهٔ books of literary and scientific works as blasphemy and memorabilia and zndeghh. "he adds the trail:«...» Saad oghas and others the result of hundreds of years of study and research of the Eastern Nations closer to water and fire. "then this is the Forum ended, said Jalal-al-Din that: "The same thing that before Islam, the Alexander library with swimming pool, and AMR aas to life with the library of Alexandria and strawberry affair after the conquest of the capital library, with a dinner and saying Baghdad with daralalm, holaku Saad bin Abi oghas-ye Ajam with library.

National Guard book dolatshah Shora (26 dashboard) Another one of the adventures of the book-burning by the Arabs in the period of the Abbasid Caliphate, pays the: “Abdullah bin Taher Abbasi, Amir of Khorasan to the times was the Caliphs. Once in Nishapur( The predicate) He was sitting. Bring a book and personal to him thafh bnhad. (Amir) Asked: What is a book? (Man) Said: This story is a good story and o vamgh and that philosophers have gathered in the name of King anoushirvan. AMIR said: We, the people, the Qur'an we read Quran and Hadith, and we do not read what the Prophet and we make these kinds of books, not work. This book, the authors مُغان(The words are) And our advance is Castaway. (So he said:) So it threw the book in the water and that the sentence in the territory of the تصانیف-ye Ajam and her way of Mages is a sentence bsusannd”

So it was that books that were unique in their time in the fields of medicine, astronomy, social and religious came to these idiots who had stepped out of the terrible hell of the Arabian Desert into the paradise of Iran, and they did what they could understand and understand..

Ravanshad Dr زرینکوب in his book(Their publication Hotel ص۹۵, 96) This is the time to examine the behavior of the Iranian language of the Arabs, and the line and says:«Arban maybe to stay safe from harm the Iranian language, decided in common languages and dialects in Iran from among both the. It was also feared that the same آخراین languages bshorand and property on their mood and their rule in remote Iran to jeopardize Blad. For this reason, wherever they encountered in Iranian cities, they encountered script, language, books and libraries, they strongly opposed them. Perhaps another excuse that the Arabs had for fighting the language of Iran was that he considered the script and language of Mojûs to hinder the publication and spread of the Qur'an..»

In fact, Iranians, even those that were accepted in the Muslim ritual language not learned the Greyhound and hence perhaps that prayer and the Koran also couldn't read the Greyhound. In the book the history of Bukhara (Page 75 of Tehran printing)Has come:"The people of Bukhara to the beginning of Islam, the Quran in prayer to learn Arabic and نتوانستندی and خواندندی the Greyhound because the time was so nice a man bowing his bang zdy: نکنیت, بکنیتا and خواستندی because you bang down prostrate: Negunni Kenitt." It is not surprising that the Arab generals of Iran have seen some opposition to their religion and government and have tried in every country to eliminate and eliminate Persian script and language..

At the end of a Word to be mentioned in the book printed in Cairo عقدالفرید (Volume 2, page 5) Khosrow Parviz میپردازم language that says: The Arabs will not work in any religion the character Niko found out and not in the working world. They are not the owner of the determination and prudence I saw and not the people of the strength and power of. They are the ones who are in the world and the people of the world, and they are the ones who.

It is hoped that we can today, more in maintaining culture and strive for politeness in English.

    دکتر فرانز رزنتال، استاد دانشگاه ییل در ذیل جمله نقل شده توسط ابن خلدون در پاورقی این کتاب می‌‌نویسد[۱]:

    This is a variant of the famous legend according to which, Umar ordered the destruction of the
    celebrated library in Alexandria

    به دیگر سخن، او این گفته ابن خلدون را که خلیفه دوم دستور به سوزاندن کتاب‌های ایرانیان داد، را کپی‌ برداری از “افسانه مشهور” سوزاندن کتابخانه اسکندریه توسط مسلمانان می‌‌داند.

    کلی ترامبل، نویسنده کتاب “کتابخانه اسکندریه” بر این باور است که اکثر دانشوران امروزی داستان تخریب کتابخانه اسکندریه به دست مسلمانان را نا معتبر می‌‌دانند[۲]:

    Today most scholars have discredited the story of the destruction of the Library by the Muslims

    دکتر برنارد لوییس، استاد دانشگاه پرینستون، در مقاله‌ای دلایل خود را بر جعلی بودن کتابسوزی اسکندریه مصر توسط اعراب ارائه می‌‌کند و به ریشه یابی‌ به وجود آمدن چنین ادعائی می‌‌پردازد. او با اشاره به شباهت روایت ابن خلدون در دستور عمر به سوزاندن کتاب‌های ایرانیان با دستوری که از وی در سوزاندن کتابخانه اسکندریه نقل می‌‌شود نتیجه می‌‌گیرد که این هر دو ادعا از جنس باور‌های عامیانه هستند[۳]:

    The 14th century historian Ibn Khaldun tells an almost identical story concerning the destruction of a library in Persia, also by order of the Caliph ‘Umar, thus demonstrating its folkloric character

    متیو بتلز، استاد دانشگاه هاروارد در کتاب “کتابخانه: تاریخی‌ پر سرو صدا” ریشه افسانه کتابسوزی اسکندریه را چنین می‌‌نگارد[۴]:

    the story as we know it may have been invented by one Ibn al-Qifti, a twelfth century Sunni chronicler. According to the Egyptian classicist, Mostafa el-Abbadi, al-Qifti may have invented the story to justify the sale of books by the twelfth-cntury Sunni ruler Sladin, who sold off whole libraries to pay off his fight against the Crusaders.

      Hello dear friend, it seems you've edited the article to wiki? If you want something from somewhere to write quote quotes identically is not your personal opinion

      In the case of rsantal he is a Professor of Hebrew and Semitic languages and specialist is an expert in not on. His story is that you quoted does not show that this story has been copied from the Alexandria Library کتابسوزی coma that Bernard Louise exactly contrary to the same content you have written about: Alexandria Library, which is also a reference yourself.

      Because the Muqaddimah of Ibn Khaldun on alabr or less credit is our nonsense and Morteza motahhari clerical professional we are not serious. «Introduction» Ibn Khaldun's work is the most important and known to it and open the English translation introduction that you yourself come page 373

      tinyurl.com/3bz6bjb

      When the Muslims conquered Persia and came upon an indescribably large number of books and scientific papers, Sa’d b. Abi Waqqas wrote to ‘Umar b. al-Khattab’, asking him for permission to take them and distribute them as booty among the Muslims. On that occasion, ‘Umar wrote him: ‘Threw them into the water. If what they contain is right guidance, God has given us better guidance. If it is error, God has protected us against it.’ Thus, the (Muslims) threw them into the water or into the fire, and the science of the Persians were lost and did not reach us

      The English translation: "When the Muslims conquered Iran and inaccessible to a number of scientific books and pamphlets upon descriptive; Saad bin Abi oghas in the life of Ben addressed this request will allow books to be split among the Muslims as war booty; at the time, Omar replied: They بیانداز into the water; if what is in them is God to us correctly guidelines the guidelines sent to the better and if our God is false since they saved. So the Muslim books to water or fire evacuation and Iranian knowledge of vanished and we completed»

      Alexandria Library about material that is irrelevant to the entire leftist because we talk کتابسوزی in Iran is not that of a سطری of Alexandria unless Bernard Louise about the similarity of these two stories have raised:
      «The 14th century historian Ibn Khaldun tells an almost identical story concerning the destruction of a library in Persia, also by order of the Caliph ‘Umar, thus demonstrating its folkloric character »

      که می گوید چون این نقل(آتش سوزی کتابخانه اسکندریه) Ibn Khaldun's written about Iran resembles کتابسوزیهای therefore, a feature on the folk show.

      Even in the case of the library of Alexandria is not merely something Louise constant efforts that the library of Alexandria rejected the کتابسوزی issue, but absolutely does not prove that the Arabic sources that wrote about it in issue are invalid or the subject is wholly incorrect, however I accept that comment Bernard Louise About Alexandria as an expert should be relevant to the topic in terms.

      The last entry whether Iran accept libraries کتابسوزی نپذیریم what is no doubt the Arab attack on the effectiveness of many valuable works of Iranians vanished and we will lose a large part of میراثمان did. This issue is a denial of ناپدیر and alternately repeated in time to be Arabs or Muslims; on arrival to the economic aspects of the conquest of Iran, and Iran is not the slightest hesitation. Similarly there is no question that today all of us or a large part of the Iranian population are Muslims and the Muslim during the fourteen centuries of our inherent part of national identity to deny or change it in a way that does not exist according to this false and vain defense of the topics that is basically Rather than defend the position of Islam and Muslims is also does not help create more sensitivity and we have good and bad aspects of the arrival of Islam to Iran we will no doubt have positive reviews is because if this section set aside today the greater part of the tmdnaman after Islam Goes through
