【Summary】
Ṣafī al-Dīn al-Urmawī is one of the most influential music theorists in the history of Iranian and Islamic music. In Kitāb al-Adwār, he presents original theories on musical modes, scales, and rhythmic patterns that shaped later developments in music theory. Alongside his other major work, al-Risāla al-Sharafiyya fī ʿilm al-nisab wa al-awzān al-īqāʿiyya, this book established a systematic approach to music, later known among modern scholars as the “Systematist School.”
This edition offers a Persian translation together with the original Arabic text, making a key classical source accessible to a wider readership.
