Abu Mikhnaf (died 774) (Lut ibn Yahya ibn Sa'id ibn Mikhnaf Al-Kufi) ({{lang|ar|لوط ابن يحيٰ ابن سعيد ابن مِخنَف الكوفي }}) was a classical Muslim historian from the 8th century.

Life

Abu Mikhnaf's name was Lut ibn Yahya, he belonged to Azd tribe and lived in Kufa, he died in {{AH|157|774}}.[2][3][7]

Muhammad ibn Mikhnaf was his paternal uncle, he was one of the reporters and was seventeen years old before Battle of Siffin.[4] Muhammad ibn Said Al Kalbi father of famous Al Kalbi was friend of Abu Mikhnaf.[5]

Historiography

He was the oldest Arab prose writer,[5] an Akhbari (propagator of news or traditions),[3] an important source of early Iraqi historical traditions,[6] and main source of Tabari.[5]

He has presented narratives in abundance of details and fulness, in strikingly frank and arresting manner, in form of dialogue and staging, which he had gathered through independent enquiries, collection of facts and seeking first hand information, but he has not ignored other traditionists, older than or contemporary with himself, for instance, he has used such authorities as, Amir Al Shahi, Rasibi, Mugalid ibn Said, and Muhammad ib Said Al Kalbi.[5]

Ibn Asakir in his book Ta'rikh madinat Dimashq has listed Ibn Al Kalbi as transmitter of Abu Mikhnaf in several places.[15] Abd al-Malik ibn Nawfal ibn Musahiq who lived in first half of the second century Hijri, Abd al-Rahman ibn Jundab, al-Hajjaj ibn Ali, and Numayr ibn Walah were authority on Abu Mikhnaf.[6]

In "Islamic Historiography", "Chase F. Robinson" has put him in the class of Ibn Ishaq and among the first Muslim historians who contributed about 40 titles in historical tradition of which no fewer than thirteen titles were monographic maqtal works.[3] His monographs were gathered by later historians like Al-Baladhuri and Al-Tabari in their collections.[3] Few of the later Sunni scholars like Al-Dhahabi, Yahya ibn Ma'in, Al-Daraqutni, and Abu Hatim have been critical of him,[7] while some describe him as pure source.[4] Some{{who|date=August 2014}} modern scholars theorize that he had some proto-Shii tendencies but there are many{{who|date=August 2014}} counter arguments to these propositions. His works however do lay focus on Ali and his sons Hasan and Husayn.{{citation needed|date=August 2014}}

Works

Ibn Nadim in Al-Fihrist enumerates 22 and Najashi lists 28 monographs composed by Abu Mikhnaf comprising:[2]
  • Kitab Al-Saqifa (The book of Saqifah)
  • Kitab Al-Ridda (The book of Ridda wars)
  • Kitab Al-Shura (The book of The election of Uthman)
  • Kitab Al-Jamal (The book of Battle of Bassorah)
  • Kitab Al-Siffin (The book of Battle of Siffin)
  • Kitab Maqtal Al-Hasan
  • Kitab Maqtal Al-Husayn (The history of Battle of Karbala)
  • Sirat Al-Hussayn
  • Kitab Khutba Al-Zahra
  • Kitab Akhbar Al-Mukhtar
  • Futuh Al Sham (Conquest of Syria)

Maqtal Al-Husayn

{{main|Maqtal Al-Husayn}}

He was the first historian to systematically collect the reports dealing with the events of the Battle of Karbala. His work was considered reliable among later Shi'a and Sunni historians like Tabari.[2] He has based his work on the eyewitness testimony of Muhammad ibn Qays, Harith ibn Abd Allah ibn Sharik al-Amiri, Abd Allah ibn Asim and Dahhak ibn Abd Allah Abu, Abu Janab al-Kalbi and Adi b. Hurmula, Muhammad ibn Qays.[8]

Futuh Al Sham

Various works titled Futuh Al Sham by Al Azdi, Ibn Al Kalbi, Ibn A'tham and Al Waqidi were based on Abu Mikhnaf's Futuh Al Sham. Both Ibn ʿAsākīr and Al-Balādhurī traced their narratives back to Abū Mikhnaf.[9]
