'''Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Muhammad Shabankara'i (; c. 1298–1358), better known as Shabankara'i''' () was a Persian poet and historian of Kurdish origin. He wrote in the Persian language and flourished during the late Ilkhanate era.
== Biography == Born in , Shabankara'i was a native of the district of Shabankara (in the southern Iranian region of Fars), which was conquered by the Mongols in 1258. In 1332 or 1333, Shabankara'i completed his general history Majma‛ al-ansāb fī l- tawārīkh ("A Collection of Genealogies in the Histories"), which was dedicated to Ghiyath al-Din Muhammad, the Persian vizier of the Ilkhanate ruler Abu Sa'id Bahadur Khan (). However, the work was destroyed during a ransacking of the vizier's house due to the disorder that followed after Abu Sa'id's death. Shabankara'i thus wrote a second version of the work on 17 December 1337. He also composed a third version in 1343, which was dedicated to the Chobanid prince Pir Husayn. The Majma‛ al-ansāb is notable for containing valuable information about the reign of Öljaitü () and Abu Sa'id. Not long after Shabankara'i's death in , a certain Ghiyath al-Din ibn Ali Faryumadi from Gurgan or Khurasan, wrote a short continuation of the Majma‛ al-ansāb, which reports about the history of the Sarbadars and the local dynasties of Khurasan during the mid-to-late 14th century.
