It appeared initially in 633/1235 when T?s? was already a celebrated scholar, scientist, politico-religious propagandist. The work has a special significance as being composed by an outstanding figure at a crucial time in the history he was himself helping to shape: some twenty years later T?s? was to cross the greatest psychological watershed in Islamic civilization, playing a leading part in the capture of Baghdad and the extinction of the generally acknowledged Caliphate 410 0$aPersian heritage series. 410 0$aUNESCO collection of representative works.$pPersian series. 606 $aIslamic ethics$vEarly works to 1800 606 $aReligious ethics 615 0$aIslamic ethics 615 0$aReligious ethics. 676 $a297 676 $a297.5 700 $aTuI?siI?$b NasiI?r al-DiI?n Muhammad ibn Muhammad$f1201-1274.,$01518032 701 $aWickens$b G.
