Notes
This research chronicles history by studying Ibn Iyas’s resources in the book Bada’i al-Zuhur about the Mamluk-Ottoman conflict, and he is a contemporary historian of that conflict. Thus, this study is an attempt to clarify the quality of the sources he relied on, their value in studying that conflict, and his method of choosing his resources, which turned out to be based on four levels of resources: official reports issued by the Mamluk state, reports submitted by participants in the conflict, oral narratives provided by participants in the conflict, and Ibn Iyas’s observations of the events, in addition to its reliance on the oral narratives transmitted by the people of Cairo, and the poetry that chronicled the events.
