Nizami Aruzi

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, which was part of Persia at the time, 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]
