Kawkab Al-durriya Li-akhbār Ifrīqiya
The ''Kawkab al-durriya li-akhbār Ifrīqiya'' is an Arabic chronicle of the stretch of the east African coast known as Zanj. It was written in 1913 by Fāḍil bin ʿUmar al-Bawrī. The title of the ''Kawkab'', which translates 'The Lustrous Star of Information about Africa', was inspired by the poem ''al-Kawākib al-durriya fi madḥ Khayr al-Bariyya'' ('the sparkling stars in praise of the best of mankind') by the 13th-century Egyptian poet al-Būṣiri. The language of the work is Arabic of a very low quality. The writing in general is poor and may represent only a first draft, which the author's death prevented him from editing. The last sentence suggests a second volume that may never have been written. The author of the ''Kawkab'' was Shaykh Fāḍil bin ʿUmar al-Bawrī. He was a Swahili, an ethnic Bājūn and native speaker of Swahili. The name Bawrī indicates that he belonged to the clan of that name from Pate Island. He probably belonged to the ''WaUngwana'', the class ...
