He was not just a thinker, he shaped how we understand history and society even today.

Abdur Rehman bin Khaldun, also known as Ibn Khaldun, was a famous Muslim scholar of the 14th century. He was born in Tunisia and is widely known as the father of modern sociology and historiography.

Ibn Khaldun was not only a historian, but also a judge (Qazi), philosopher, and political advisor. His most famous book is the "Muqaddimah", where he explained how societies grow, fall, and rebuild.

He studied how people live in cities and villages, how leaders govern, and how culture affects development. His ideas were very new at that time and still help students and scholars around the world.

He also served in government roles and gave advice to kings and rulers. His work is a big part of Islamic knowledge and world history.

Ibn Khaldun’s contributions show that Islamic scholars played a huge role in building the foundations of modern science and thought.
