The Dabistán, or School of manners, Volume 3 (of 3) by Fani, Shea, and Troyer

"The Dabistán, or School of manners, Volume 3 (of 3)" by Fani, Shea, and Troyer is a comparative religion work written between 1645 and 1658. This Persian text surveys the religious landscape of mid-17th century South Asia and the Middle East, examining Abrahamic and Dharmic faiths alongside ancient Greek philosophical traditions. Spanning twelve chapters, it offers detailed accounts of diverse beliefs from Zoroastrianism to Sikhism, including rare documentation of Emperor Akbar's syncretic Din-i Ilahi and the theological discussions that inspired it.
