The Ḥudūd al-ʿĀlam is a 10th-century geography book written in Persian by an anonymous author from Guzgan, possibly Šaʿyā bin Farīghūn. The title in full is حدود العالم من المشرق الی المغرب. The sections of its geographical treatise which describes the margins of Islamic world, are of great historical importance, including early descriptions of the Turkic peoples in Central Asia. Also noteworthy is the archaic language and style of the Ḥudud, which makes it a valuable Persian linguistic document
