Encyclopaedia Islamica Volume 8 : Ḥabīb al-ʿAjamī - al-Ḥuwayzī (Encyclopaedia Islamica)

The 16 volume Encyclopaedia Islamica is due to become one of the major comprehensive reference works on Islam and the Muslim world. A unique feature is the attention given to aspects of Islamic heritage—particularly Shiʿism—which makes it complementary to other encyclopaedias.
