Ṣafī al-Dīn Muḥammad ibn ʿAlī ibn al-Ṭabāṭabā (Arabic: محمد بن علي بن طباطبا العلوي; 1262– 1309) also known as Ibn al-Tiqtaqa, was a historian and naqib of Alids in Ḥilla.[1]
He was a direct descendant of Ḥasan ibn Ali ibn Abi Ṭalib. According to E.G. Browne's English version Of Mīrzā Muhammad b. ‛Abudi’l-Wahhāb-i—Qazwīni's edition of ‛Alā-ad-Dīn ‛Ata Malik-i-Juwaynī's Ta’rīhh-i-Jahān Gushā (London1912, Luzac), p.ix, Ibn al-Tiqtaqā's name was Safiyu’d-Din Muhammad ibn ‛Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Tabātabā.
Around 1302 AD he wrote a popular compendium of Islamic history called al-Fakhri.[2][3]
According to the political scientist Vasileios Syros, the philosophy of ibn al-Ṭabāṭabā can be compared to that of Niccolò Machiavelli.[4]
