'The Muqaddimah' by Ibn Khaldun is a foundational text in the fields of sociology, history, and economics.

Written in the 14th century, it introduces concepts such as social cohesion ('asabiyyah'), the cyclical nature of civilizations, and the economic principles of supply and demand.

Khaldun examines the factors that contribute to the rise and fall of dynasties, emphasizing the importance of social, economic, and environmental factors.

His work provides insights into the dynamics of power, the role of leadership, and the impact of cultural values on societal development.

'The Muqaddimah' remains relevant for its comprehensive analysis of human societies and its enduring influence on modern social sciences.
