Kisai Marvazi
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Persian poet (10th century CE)
Not to be confused with Al-Kisa'i.
Kisa'i Marvazi (Persian: کسایی مروزی; 953–1002) was a 10th-century Persian poet.[1]
His full name was probably Abu’l-Hasan (or Abu Ishaq) Majd al-Din ʿAli ibn Muhammad Kisāʾi (or Kasāʾi) Marvazi (according to Ali al-Bakharzi, author of Dumyat al-Qasr).[1] Born in 953 CE and originating from Merv, he paid flattery first and foremost to the courts of the Samanids, but also to the Abbasids and Ghaznavids, particularly Mahmud of Ghazni.[citation needed]
He is said to have later converted to Shia Islam.[citation needed]
