Abstract

This article reviews the development of autobiographical writing in Islamic history, also reviews five autobiographical writings written by several Islamic scholars and philosophers to describe the form and approach used by them. It can be concluded that, autobiographical writing in Islam is not a complete imitation of an external civilization encompassing concepts and forms. On the other hand, Islamic autobiography has its own characteristics and approaches apart from developing various forms of writing.
