Farid Al-Din Attar was one of old Persais greatest poets. He appears to have died between a.d. 1220 and 1230. Of the very numerous epics and idylls ascribed to Attar perhaps nine may be recognized as authentic. Of these the most famous is the Manteq Altair, a subtle and charming allegory of the soul's progress towards God. This book is a collection of biographies of Sufis, Mystics and Muslims saints.
