Discourse of the Righteous and Night-Talk of the Chosen

محاضرة الأبرار ومسامرة الأخيار (Muhadarat al-abrar wa-musamarat al-akhyar)

Ibn Arabi a caballo con dos discípulos (miniatura safaví)
byIbn Arabi

An *adab* anthology mixing anecdotes of prophets, caliphs and saints, historical reports, poetry, maxims and travel stories. Its literary, miscellaneous character sets it apart from the doctrinal treatises, and the debate over its authorship makes it a test case for the attributed corpus.
