Persian historiography was of particular importance in the Indian subcontinent during the tenth and eleventh centuries thanks to the support of sultans and the migration of Iranians to India. One of the Iranian immigrants who wrote a historical work at the Qutb Shahi court was Khurshah b.Qubad al-Husseini, whose work is known as Tarikh-e Ilchi Nizam Shah or as Tarikh-e Qutb Shahi. This book is the first work written in the Qutb Shahi court. The author provides valuable information on Iranian history due to his presence in Safavid ruler, Shah Tahmasb's camp as the ambassador of Nizam Shahi Dynasty. This study attempts to investigate Khurshah's methods, insights and attitudes in historiography using a descriptive-analytical method. Documentation, a simple writing style free from figures of speech, the use of religious insights in explaining historical events, the use of fatalism, hermeneutics and Qur’anic verses and hadiths (sayings of the Prophet Muhammad) to justify rulers' actions, paying attention to economic and social history, and the use of the terms and concepts showing Iranian identity are considered to be among the prominent features of Khurshah's historiography.
