The original title of this reknown work is Al-Kawakib al-Durriya fi Madh Khayr al-Bariya but is better known as Qasida al-Burda (Poem of the Mantle). The poem and its author, Al-Busiri, are traditionally revered by sufis.

Numerous commentaries of this poem have been written of which two, dated 1357 and 1433 AD are in the Chester Beatty Library (respectively no.3501 and no.4236). Another is included in this sale, lot 308.
