Translation, by D. Durand, of the second edition (Utrecht, 1717) of De religione mohammedica libri duo. The material, including translations of many passages, was drawn from original sources, chiefly Abu Shujāʻ. cf. Quérard. La France litt. 1835. t. 7, p. 515.
The "Confession de foi mahometane," added by the translator, was based on a Spanish copy in Arabic characters. cf. p. xxxiv, 286.
