Abstract

Multan is not only one of the oldest cities in the world but also has been cultural and educational centre in the valleys of Sindh and Hind for Years. It is considered as old as "HARRAPA and MOINJODORO" of "Gandhara art". The significance of Multan in cultural, educational and social context is shown from the fact that, this city is not only mentioned in the history thousand years ago but also present in the same situation. Because of this significance, many well known thinkers and philosophers came to Multan from far off lands. Al-bairuni is one of those and he is considered as the great Geographer, Mathematician Astronomer, Historian and Philosopher. He himself came to Multan and wrote in his books whatever was witnessed by him. This paper has accessed the possible information about Multan which is discussed in those books along with the life history of Al-bairuni and introduction of his books for the facilitation of research.
