This work explores the various stages and complexities of the Arab conquests in Central Asia, particularly focusing on the regions of Khurāsān and Transoxania. The book delves into the political and cultural dynamics of the time, detailing the interactions between Arab forces and the Iranian peoples they sought to subjugate. The opening of the book sets the stage for an in-depth examination of the early history and political divisions of the Oxus Basin, introducing essential themes of conquest, resistance, and cultural assimilation.
