\nAl-Biruni’s Kitab-ul-Hind was written in Arabic.
\n<\/section>\n
\nAl-Biruni was a Central Asian scholar who travelled to India with Mahmud of Ghazni in the early 11th century. His monumental work, Kitab-ul-Hind (literally “Book on India”), is a comprehensive study of Indian society, culture, religion, philosophy, science, and geography. Al-Biruni wrote this work, like most of his scholarly output, in Arabic.
\n<\/section>\n
