Hindabā is one of medicinal plants that is described in medical and pharmaceutical books in Islamic period. Muslim scholars also used the other names such as anṭūbiyā, Bakrīzīyā, Tīfāf, Kāsnī and Kasnāj for it and explained medicinal properties for various parts such as leaf and root of this plant. Contemporary researchers have matched Hindabā with Cichorium intybus and C. endivia from Asteraceae family. In this research, the entry of Hindabā has been examined in some of medicinal and pharmaceutical books of the Islamic period from the 3rd to the 12th century. Muslim scholars mostly have divided two types of Hindabā, Barrī and Bostānī, and described their morphology. In books like al-Ḥāwī fī al-ṭibb, Al-Jāmʿ li-Mufradāt Al-Adwīyat Wal Aghdhīyat, Ikhtīyārāt i badīy, ḥadīghat al-azhār, Tadhkirat-ulul-albāb, Tuḥfat al-Muminīn and Makhzan al-Adwiyih, the types of Hindabā and its characteristics, the name of it in different languages and its medicinal properties have been mentioned and in Umdat al-ṭṭabīb, the types of Hindabā, its names and characteristics have been described.
