TIRÂZ — TDV İslâm Ansiklopedisi (Nebi Bozkurt)

الطراز — موسوعة TDV الإسلامية (نبي بوزقورت)

The TDV İslâm Ansiklopedisi entry 'Tırâz': the inscribed band on fine garments and the workshops that wove it, its origins under the Persian and Byzantine rulers, Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan's order to drop the Greek tiraz in Egypt and weave the declaration of God's oneness instead, then the tiraz house and its master under the Abbasids, the Umayyads of al-Andalus and the Fatimids, and its afterlife in Norman Sicily.
