    Shaikh Farid Al-din Attar's life and works



    DEAR brothers and sisters

    As Salaamu AlaikumWarahmatullahi Wabarakaatuhu

    All Praise is due to Allah Paak, Choicest Peace and
    Salutations upon Muhammdur-Rasoolullah Sallal Laahu
    Alaihi Wasallam, the only one who is given the ability to praise and give thanks to Allah Azza Wajal; who is praised by all who are raised on the Day of Last Judgement, for he will be the only one who intercede for the believers and whose intercession will be valid.



    I submit here with the following web site of Iran in which are there many details of Shaikh Farid Al-din Attar's life and works are available.

    The above details were gathered in the following web site by MR.Ladan M. Sadeghioon.


    For the reader’s reference before checking the following web site I request the readers to please study also the following details of Shaikh Farid Al-din Attar's life and works which I have mentioned herewith very briefly but the following details very important.


    Shaikh Farid Al-din Attar is considered one of the preeminent mystical poets of the Persian literary tradition. The duration of his life is uncertain, though he can be placed in the 12th and 13th centuries C.E. born in Nishapur in what is today Iran.

    Attar apparently was a pharmacist but little information about his personal life is known. During his lifetime he is believed to have written approximately 9 books, including such famous works as

    The Manteq Al-Tayr (The Conference of the Birds) and
    The Ilahi-Nama (The book of God)

    Tadhkiratal-Auliya (Muslim Saints and Mystics) is considered world famous classical book of Persian literature which printed and re-printed in many countries in many languages of the world.




    I request the readers of the SUNNIPORT to kindly read the Shaikh Farid Al-din Attar's life and works directly from the below web site for which I shall be highly obliged to all .
