About Abd al-Rahman Mushfiqi

Abd al-Rahman Mushfiqi was a poet.

Abd al-Rahman Mushfiqi Bukhara'i (; 1525/1538–1588) was a Central Asian poet who wrote Persian lyrics and satires, mainly at court of the Khanate of Bukhara. Born in Bukhara, he is sometimes referred to as "Marvazi" due to his father being from Marv.

Mushfiqi is regarded as a leading Persian poet in 16th-century Central Asia. His Divan-i mutabat ("Anthology of jokes"), also called the Divan-i hajviyat ("Anthology of satires"), is an important collection of verses encompassing multiple literary genres. It was composed in 1557/58 and is exclusively devoted to satirical lines.
