Auhaduddin Kermani
Shaikh Abu Hamid Auhadeddin Kermani was a 13th-century Sufi and poet from Persia.
He is the author of Mathnavi Misbāhu'l-arvāh, which is an allegorical pilgrimage through imaginary towns, bearing some affinity to Dante's Divina Commedia.
He was suspected of heresy, and is thought to have died in 1298.
