تذکره الأولیاء الفارسية 1447

Taẕkirat al-Awliyāʾ is one of the most distinguished works of Persian literature, composed by the sixth–seventh century poet, mystic, and master narrative artist Farīd al-Dīn Abū Ḥāmid ʿAṭṭār of Nishapur, whose contributions enriched the precious treasury of Iranian literary heritage. Drawing on the spiritual and literary legacy of his predecessors, ʿAṭṭār created numerous poetic masterpieces and also authored the unparalleled prose work Taẕkirat al-Awliyāʾ, further developing and refining the symbolic language of Persian mystical writing.

The present edition has been typeset and printed based on the Leiden facsimile, first published in 1905 through the efforts of Reynold A. Nicholson—the eminent British scholar of Sufism and Islamic mysticism and professor of Persian at the University of Cambridge.
