The Ibāḍīs constitutes the moderate wing of the Kharijite opposition movement to the Umayyad and ‘Abbasid caliphates. The texts edited are mostly  polemical letters to opponents or exhortatory to followers by ‘Abd Allah b. Ibad , Abu l-‘Ubayda Muslim b. Abi Karima and other Ibadi leaders in Basra, Oman and Hadramawt. An epistle detailing the offences of the caliph ‘Uthman is by the early Kufan historiographer al-Haytham b. ‘Adi. By their early date and independence of the mainstream historical tradition these txts offer the modern historian of Islam an invaluable complement to the well-known literary sources.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Researchers and students of Islamic intellectual history will be grateful for having more material to make sense of the classical period of Islamic theological traditions.\"   Sajjad Rizvi in: The Muslim World Book Review, 40:3, 2020      \"The scientific edition of these fourteen early Ibāḍī texts, all from the 2nd\/8th century, together in one book, constitutes a welcome addition to the growing body of newly edited and published old Ibāḍī texts.\"   Martin Custers, in: Bibliotheca Orientalis LXXVI N° 1-2 (2019)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1-\tThe Introduction. 2-\tThe Texts a.\tLetter of ‘Abd Allāh b.
