| Zusammenfassung: | The authenticity of the Kitāb al-dīn wa-al-dawla by the Nestorian convert to Islam, Abū al-Ḥasan ʿAlī b. Sahl Rabban al-Ṭabarī (d. ca. 251/865), has been discussed since the publication of the text by A. Mingana in 1922/23. A comparison between the chapter of the Twelver Shīʿī Sadīd al-Dīn Maḥmūd b. ʿAlī al-Ḥimmaṣī al-Rāzī's (d. after 600/1204) Munqidh min al-taqlīd discussing the biblical predictions of the Prophet Muḥammad and the corresponding sections of Fakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī's (d. 606/1209) Mafātiḥ al-ghayb reveals a substantial degree of verbal and structural agreement. It becomes evident that Fakhr al-Dīn, like al-Ḥimmaṣī, are using material from Ibn Rabban's Al-dīn wa-al-dawla, although they were both relying on an intermediate source, Abū al- usayn al-Baṣrī's (d. 436/1045) Kitāb ghurar al-adilla. |
