عرف المؤرخ العراقي البارز الدكتور جواد على أكثر ما عرف بتأليفه كتابه الأشهر «تاريخ العرب قبل الإسلام»، الذي وسعه ونقحه وأضاف عليه كثيرا، بعد اكتمال صدوره بسنوات، ليصبح موسوعة تاريخية ضخمة بعنوان «المفصل في تاريخ العرب قبل الإسلام»، تعد اليوم المرجع الأهم والمعول عليه في دراسة هذه الحقبة من التاريخ. ولقد كان من حسن حظنا أن توفق إلى العمل في تحقيق موسوعة خطية أخرى مكملة لهذا الجهد المعرفي، أنجزها الدكتور جواد على في سنواته الأخيرة، وهي بعنوان «المفصل في تاريخ العرب في الإسلام»، أرخ فيها لعصر النبوة ولوقائع العقود الأربعة الأولى بعد الهجرة، وقد بلغنا مراحل متقدمة في تحقيقها. ويسعدنا ومجلة (المورد) الغراء تكرس عددها الفصلي الأول في هذا العام للطبري، أن نخص قراءها بفصل لم يسبق نشره من هذه المخطوطة بعنوان «بدء الردة»، كانت روايات الطبري المصدر التاريخي الرئيس فيه، وذلك تلبية لدعوة كريمة من مدير تحريرها الأخ الأستاذ حسين محمد عجيل.
The Iraqi prominent historian Dr. Ali Jawad was well-known for writing his most popular book "Arab History pre Islam" which he revised and added to it after years of being issued, so that it became a huge historical encyclope- dia named as "The Elaboration of Arab History pre Islam" which is consid- ered- nowadays- the most important and reliable source in studying this era in history. We are fortunate to be able to achieve another written encyclope- dia which was accomplished by Dr. Ali Jawad in his last years, named as "The Elaboration in Arab History in Islam", chronicling the era of the prophet and the events of the first four decades af-ter AH, that we reached advanced stag- es in achieving it. We and Al-Mawrid Journal are thrilled to dedicate the journal's first quarterly issue this year for Al-Tabari, to involve its readers in a chapter that hasn't been published from this manuscript named as "the start of Al-Ridda", Al-Tabari's novels were the main historical source to fulfill the journal's managing edi- tor invitation Mr. Hussein Muhammad Ajeel. Al-Tabari's history is considered as one of the most important resources that Dr. Jawad Ali in this chapter, which was mentioned by him for more than 20 times, and was also mentioned in foot notes for 38 times, as for he is one of the most historians who wrote about Al- Ridda events, and because he present us- as Jawad Ali argued- old original texts. Thus he described his in-depth research for these events by saying: "I cannot find one historian among those who wrote about Al-Ridda reached the way that Al-Tabari wrote in". Before we include the revised text- which we supply with defining foot- notes that we distinguished from the author's footnotes- we summarized the scholarly biography of Dr. Jawad Ali, and we also mentioned his most promi-nent printed and scripted monuments, we further discussed about "The Elabo- ration in Arab History in Islam" manu- script, how we found it, presented a de- scription for the origin of this written chapter, explained our steps in achiev-ing it, then we discussed Dr. Jawad Ali's evaluation for Al-Tabari's role in docu-menting Al-Ridda events by mention-ing his point of view-as a contemporary historian- about Al-Ridda and his own analysis for it. we concluded this re-search with a summarized conclusion followed by graphic patterns from the manuscript.
