Fawaid-al Fawad
(Consolation of Heart)
   A record of Nizam al-Din Auliya's conversations compiled by his disciple Hasan Sijzi, a well-known Persian poet of the 14th century. The book consists of five parts in which the record of conversations at 188 sittings, during 1308-1322, is furnished. Several parts of text were revised and cor-rected by Nizam al-Din Auliya himself, which speaks of the authen-ticity of the available text.
