A book on history and sociology, this work serves as an introduction to a book on history. In it, Ibn Khaldun sought to explain the science of history, the conditions of societies, their politics, and the reasons for their emergence. If sociology can be attributed to a founder, then it undoubtedly goes back to Ibn Khaldun. The Muqaddimah is considered an important reference for every researcher in history or sociology, as well as for those studying the causes behind the rise of nations or the geography and boundaries of many states during that period, whether the researcher is Arab or foreign.
