Description

Recent few decades have underscored the need for major reference works that provide immediate access to the great Muslim history makers of Indian Sub-continent. This multi-volume work has been designed to meet that current requirement of biographical studies.

This is a comprehensive biographical encyclopaedia of about 4000 eminent Muslims of Indian subcontinent from advent of Islam to present day. It has been compiled in alphabetical order. Although several biographical works have been published in India and abroad but none of these is able to produce such a vast informative biography of prominent Indian personalities from ancient time to present day.

The entries included in these volumes cover a wide range of competent surveys of biography written by the contributors and compilers.
