Mojmal al-Tawarikh wa al-Qasas (Persian: مُجمل التواریخ و القصص, lit.'The Collection of Histories and Tales') was a book written in Ghaznavid Persia (in c. 1126[citation needed]).

The book is a chronicle mostly of Persian Kings, and is often cited as a source of reference for historical events of the 12th century and before. It refers to the classical Persian Shahnameh as the "tree" and all other poems as "branches".[1]

Some authors have claimed the name of the author to be Ibn Shadi Asad abadi (ابن شادی اسدآبادی).[2] The book was first edited in 1939 by Mohammad-Taqi Bahar in Tehran.

Another book with the same title was written by Fasihuddin Ahmad in 1441.[citation needed]
