Sheik Abol-Hasan of Kharaqan is one of the master Sufis of Iran - considered a Sufi's Sufi.
He was born in 963 from Persian parents in Khorasan and died on the day of Ashura in 1033. He is not as well known or as widely as some of the great Muslim saints from Khorasan-Attar, Rumi, or Bahaoddin Naqhshband. However, this near anonymity was deliberate, according to the Sheikh's wish when he lived. Despite being a hidden saint, his spiritual affinity and grace are still very much acknowledged among the living Sufi circles across Iran and in the region. Even today, a steady stream of dervish pilgrims visits his tomb in Iran. His enduring presence is still potent among those whose aim in life is to attain higher knowledge and refinement of the heart.
