‘Abd al-Raḥmān Khān and the “maraẓ ul-mulūk”

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 September 2009

Extract

The reign of ‘Abd al-Raḥmān Khān (1880–1901) is considered by most historians to have been the foundation stone of modern Afghanistan and consequently much has been written about this formative period of Afghanistan's history. However, despite the extensive literature available on his reign, several important features about the Afghan Amīr appear to have been either overlooked or ignored.
