Abstract

Tareekh Adab e Urdu by Dr. Jameel Jalbi, in four volumes, is the most authentic source to know the history of Urdu literature in the terms of research and criticism because the writer consulted the primary sources either in the form of books or manuscripts. Manuscripts are the primary source of research and historiography and it is not easy to have access to them but Dr. Jalbi did an untiring effort to gather and read them critically. He searched the Urdu manuscripts including Sheri Dewan, Kulyat, Masnavi, Dastan, History, and translations. This article is an introductory study of Urdu manuscripts used in compiling history. It also highlights the importance of this history in the context of its authentic research-based status.
