Folio of a copy of the Chahar Maqala by Nizami Aruzi. Dated 1383, likely from Jalayirid-era Tabriz
Ahmad ibn Umar ibn Alī, known as Nizamī-i Arūzī-i Samarqandī (Persian: نظامی عروضی) and also Arudi ("The Prosodist"), was a poet and prose writer[1][2] who flourished between 1110 and 1161. He is particularly famous for his Chahar Maqala[3] ("Four Discourses"), his only work to fully survive. While living in Samarqand, Abu’l-Rajaʾ Ahmad b. ʿAbd-Al-Ṣamad, a dehqan in Transoxiana, told Nezami of how the poet Rudaki was given compensation for his poem extolling the virtues of Samanid Amir Nasr b. Ahmad.[4]
