Notes
This is the book an abridgment (talkhis) of Gul Din Sataru Baba's Safinat al-Muttaqin, entitied Khazinat al-Asfiyaʾ, by Sayyid ʿAli Shah, who is among the author's descendants. However, the abridgment includes additions to the original text, such as Sayyid ʿAli Shah's inclusion of his Chishti (Chishti) spiritual lineage (silsila). Shataru Baba passed away five generations before him. Nevertheless, through Khwajah Allah Bakhsh Siddiqi Peshawari, he connects his lineage to the Chishti order (tariqah). The text has several notable deficiencies; for instance the information recorded about Shah Muhammad Ghawth and Sayyid Hasan Qadiri Gilani is not accurate. | Digitization for the Sufi Shrine Libraries of the Afghan-Pakistan Frontier collection was sponsored by the Modern Endangered Archives Program with funding from Arcadia. | public domain
