Nūr al-Dīn Jaʿfar Badakhshī (d. c.797/1395) was a disciple of the eminent Central Asian Ṣūfī shaykh Sayyid ʿAlī Hamadānī (d. 786/1385). He wrote, in Persian, the Khulāṣat al-manāqib (“The epitome of virtues”), the earliest hagiographical work devoted to his master. What little is known of Badakhshī’s life comes almost entirely from this work.
