An Invaluable and Unknown Hadiqa (Garden)

Sheikh Ahmad Jaam Jendehpil (440-536 A.H.) and his knowledgeable, cultured and educated descendents were effective and outstanding figures in the mystic literaure and the Sufism of the great Khorasan as well as Iran. The various works of Sheikh Ahmad and his descendents are unfortunately not yet known to a majority of researchers; hence, many of the literary manifestations, subtleties and values, historic perspectives and the ideas in these works are yet to be discovered. This article introduces an unknown but invaluable work: Hadiqat al-Haqiqa (The Real Garden) by Qotb al-Din Mohammad ibn Motahhar ibn Ahmad Jaam.
