Abstract

Qutb al-Din Shirazi’ s Ikhtiyā; rā t Muzaffari can be considered the most comprehensive hay’; a book in Persian. According to the documents, Shirazi completed it only 4 months after the Nihā; yat al-Idrā; k fi Dirā; yat al-Aflā; k in 1281 dedicated to one of the rulers of Kastamonu. Although many sections of the Ikhtiyā; rā t are literal translations of Nihā; ya, the distribution and presentation of many subjects, especially the non-Ptolemaic planetary models, are completely different. While the language of Ikhtiyā; rā t is under the influence ofArabic structure, it maintains some signs of Persian identity. According to the introduction, the word “ Ikhtiyarā t” does not mean “ selection” in astrology, rather it refers to the author’ s “ preferences” or his new models to solve the difficulties of Ptolemaic models. There are some hints in the sources showing that the relationship between Shirazi and his master, Nasir al-Din Tusi, was not very friendly. Some new evidence is found in Nihā; ya and Ikhtiyā; rā t which may shed new light on the subject.
