Zīj as-Sindhind (Arabic: زيج السندهند الكبير, Zīj as‐Sindhind al‐kabīr, lit. "Great astronomical tables of the Sindhind"; from Sanskrit siddhānta, "system" or "treatise") is a work of zij (astronomical handbook with tables used to calculate celestial positions) brought in the early 770s AD to the court of Caliph al-Mansur in Baghdad from India. Al-Mansur requested an Arabic translation of this work from the Sanskrit. The 8th-century astronomer and translator Muhammad al-Fazari is known to have contributed to this translation. In his book Ṭabaqāt al-ʼUmam (Categories of Nations), Said al-Andalusi informs that others who worked on it include al-Baghdadi and al-Khwarizmi. He adds that its meaning is "ad-dahr ad-dahir" (infinite time or cyclic time).

"Tavole astronomiche del Sindhind", dal termine sanscrito siddhānta, "sistema" o "trattato") è un lavoro indiano di zīj (manuale astronomico con tavole usate per calcolare le posizioni dei corpi celesti) che fu parzialmente tradotto verso il 773 alla corte del califfo abbaside al-Manṣūr a Baghdad. L'interesse dei musulmani per l'astronomia era tanto accentuato che nel 771 una missione indiana si era recata nella capitale abbaside "per insegnarvi le scienze indiane e per cooperare nella traduzione di testi in arabo".

Al-Manṣūr richiese infatti una traduzione in arabo dal sanscrito di questo (che costituiva una parte del , composto da Brahmagupta a Bhillamāla (Rajasthan meridionale) nel 628, in onore del signore della dinastia (Fiyāghra in arabo) ). Si ha motivo di credere che l'astronomo e traduttore dell'VIII secolo, Muhammad ibn Ibrahim al-Fazari, abbia contribuito a questa traduzione, assieme a suo padre Ibrahim al-Fazari e a Ya'qub ibn Tariq L'interesse dei musulmani per l'astronomia era tanto accentuato che nel 771 una missione indiana si era recata nella capitale abbaside "per insegnarvi le scienze indiane e per cooperare nella traduzione di testi in arabo". Il lavoro sarà completato da al-Khwarizmi: ragion per cui la sua fatica fu chiamata Zīj al‐Sindhind al‐kabīr, in arabo ﺯﻳﺞ ﺍﻟﺴﻨﺪﻫﻨﺪ ﺍﻟﻜﺒﻴﺮ ("Grande Zīj al‐Sindhind"). (it)
