Fakhr al-Din Hindushah Nakhjavani (Persian: هندوشاه نخجوانی, romanized: Hindūšāh Naḫjawāni) or Nakhjivani (c. 1240 - c. 1328) was a medieval scholar, poet and historian.
According to Clifford Edmund Bosworth, the nisba Sahebi meant that he was connected to a powerful political figure of his time[1] - Shams al-Din Juwayni.
[citation needed] Before 1275, he was a student in Mustansiriya Madrasah, studying ophtalmology, Arabic grammar and hadith under teachers like Shams al-Dīn Muḥammad Kīshī (d. 1294) and Abu al-Qasim Kashani.
Sometime later he went to Luristan and presented his work Tajāreb al-salaf, a Persian translation of Ibn al-Tiqtaqa's Kitab al-Fakhri with his own additions[2] to atabeg Nusrat al-Din Ahmad[1] in April–May 1314.
While scholars like O.F.Akimushkin who dated the work to 8 May 1279[4] and Gulam Huseyn Bigdali who published an edition of this book supported Hindushah's authorship, Charles Ambrose Storey, Muhit Tabataba’i and others doubted it.
