The Present work constitutes the first English translation from the original German of the late Professor Walther Hinz’s acclaimed reference book Islamische Maβe und Gewichte, umgerechnet ins metrische System on measures and weights which have been used throughout the Muslim Lands both in the past and in the present times. Hinz’s work, originally published by E. J. Brill in Leiden, the Netherlands, more than three decades ago, still constitutes an indispensable tool for research for anyone with an interest in the civilization of the Muslim lands, from the Maghreb, over the countries of the Fertile Crescent and the Iranian world, to the Indian subcontinent.
