Kamal-ud-Din Abd-ur-Razzaq ibn Ishaq Samarqandi (Persian: کمالالدین عبدالرزاق بن اسحاق سمرقندی, 1413–1482), was a Persian[1] Timurid chronicler and Islamic scholar. He was for a while the ambassador of Shah Rukh, the Timurid dynastyruler of Persia. In his role as ambassador he visited Calicut in western India in the early 1440s. He wrote a narrative of what he saw in Calicut which is valuable as information on Calicut's society and culture. He is also the producer of a lengthy narrative or chronicle of the history of the Timurid dynasty and its predecessors in Central Asia, but this is not so valuable because it is mostly a compilation of material from earlier written sources that are mostly available from elsewhere in the earlier form.[2]
