<Li> Sayyid Abd - al - Razzaq Al - Muqarram, author of Maqtalul - Husayn </Li> <P> Also several books have been written in the Persian language about political backgrounds and aspects of the battle of Karbala . </P> <P> In 1885 - 1891, Mir Mosharraf Hossain wrote a novel named Bishad Shindhu (the Ocean of Sorrow) regarding Karbala . </P> <P> Va'ez Kashefi's Rowzat al - Shohada (Garden of Martyrs) authored in 1502, is one of the main sources used for quoting the history of the battle and aftermath in later histories . Kashfi's composition was "a synthesis of a long line of historical accounts of Karbala," such as Said al - Din's Rowzat al - Islam (The Garden of Islam) and al - Khawarazmi's Maqtal nur' al -' a'emmeh (The Site of The Murder of the light of The Imams). Kashefi's composition was an effective factor in formation of rowzweh khani, a kind of ritual . The name of Husayn ibn Ali appears several times in the work of the first great Sufi Persian poet, Sanai . According to Annemarie Schimmel, the name of the martyred hero can be found now and then in connection with bravery and selflessness, and Sanai sees him as the prototype of the shahid (martyr), higher and more important than all the other martyrs who are and have been in the world . </P>
