Abstract

Abdurrahman Chishti bin Abdur Rasool bin Qasim bin Shah Chishti is one of the mystics of the Chishti dynasty whose name is not found in tazkira and mystical texts. For the first time, professor Dr. Tawfiq Sobhani mentioned his works such as Merat al-Asrar, Merat Madari, Merat al-Haqayq, Merat Masoudi, Orad Chishtiyeh and Nafs Rahmani in his book A Look at the History of Persian Literature in India. His most famous book is Merat al-Asr, which has not been corrected so far. This work provides valuable information about the Chishtiyyah dynasty and the Persian mystics of the Indian subcontinent, which are not widely known in Iran. Despite the importance of this edition, previous researches have been silent about the sameness of Marat al-Asrar and Marat Masoudi, the year of writing and its prose style. This research examines the text with a library approach and proves that the prose of the text belongs to the Safavieh, Intermediate period and the time of its writing, 1045 to 1065 A.H. Is.
