c10.6

‘Abd al-’Aziz ibn Shams² prepared a Persian versian *Tarjuma-hi Bārāhī* of the *Bṛhat Saṃhitā* of Varāhamihira for Fīrūz Shah. Out of the 104 chapters (*bābs*) in the original, only eight were left out in the translation. He might have written another persian work, *Nujūm al-Hind wa San‘at-i-usṭurlāb* on Indian astronomy and construction of astrolabe. The date of compilation is not available.
