What is "saljuq-nama"

The Saljūq-Nāma (, "Book of Seljuk [Empire]") is a history of the Great Seljuk Empire written by the Persian historian Ẓāhir al-Dīn Nīshāpūrī around 1175. Written in Persian, it has been acknowledged as the primary source for Saljuq material for Persian works dating from 13th century to 15th century, which include; Rahat al-sudur, Jami al-tawarikh, Tarikh-i Guzida, Zubdat al-Tawarikh and Rawdat as-Safa. Abulqasim Qashani, a Persian historian who wrote about the Ilkhanids, made alterations and additions to the original text, which was later misidentified as the original Saljuq-nama.
