The Saljūq-Nāma (Persian: سلجوقنامه, "Book of Seljuk [Empire]") is a history of the Great Seljuk Empire written by the Persian historian Zahir al-Din Nishapuri around 1175.[1] Written in Persian,[2] it has been acknowledged as the primary source for Saljuq material for Persian works dating from 13th century to 15th century, which include; Rahat al-sudur, Jami al-tawarikh, Tarikh-i Guzida, Zubdat al-Tawarikh and Rawdat as-Safa. Abu l'Qasim Qashani, a historian who wrote about the Ilkhanids,[3] made alterations and additions to the original text, which was later misidentified as the original Saljuq-nama.[4]
