i am assuming this is a rare article, or at least its one i had not heard of before. its not directly my field, but the article does cover subjects of interest to me.

Malaysian Weapons in Arabic Literature by S.Q.Fatima.

its very interesting, and delves into early arabic sources. i havent read it properly as yet, as i bumbled on to it whilst looking for something else. its 30 pages long (includng exensive notes) and i think it was written in a journal in the 1970s.
it covers trading routes between malalsia and islam and translates some very early sources.
is anyone familiar with this at all?
