The Travels of Ibn Battuta (Arabic: تحفة النظار في غرائب الأمصار وعجائب الأسفار Tuḥfat an-nuẓẓār fī gharāʾib al-amṣār wa-ʿajāʾib al-asfār [A gift for the curious, concerning the wonders of cities and marvels of the journeys thereto][1]), also known simply as The Rihla (الرحلة ar-riḥla), is the travelogue written by Ibn Battuta, documenting his lifetime of travel and exploration, which according to his description covered about 73,000 miles (117,000 km). Rihla is the Arabic word for a voyage or journey, and it is a genre of travel writing in Arabic literature.[2]

Upon Ibn Battuta’s final return to Morocco in 1353, he dictated his retrospective account of his travels to the Andalusi scholar Abū ʿAbdallāh Ibn Juzayy[3] under the patronage of the Marinid Sultan Abū ʿInān Fāris, who commissioned Ibn Juzayy to receive and edit the account.[1] Ibn Juzayy, son of the Granadan jurist Ibn Juzayy al-Kalbī al-Gharnāṭī, also added his own poetic contributions.[1] The work was completed in 1356, 31 years after Ibn Battuta began his journey.[1]

@PugJesus I swear sometimes historians choose people based on how white their names sound
