It briefly mentions prophets up to Ismail, before delving into the Persian Islamic history, documenting their kings and contemporaries in Arabia and the Roman territories, especially Alexander the Roman. The text provides detailed and extensive information on Persian history compared to other Muslim historians, covering neighboring regions through this narrative.
