The Silsilat-an-Nasab-i Safaviya, also spelled Selselat-an-Nasab-e Safaviyye (Persian: سلسلة النسب صفویة, meaning Genealogy of the Safavid dynasty) was written by Sheikh Pir Husayn 'Abd az-Zahidi, a 17th-century descendant of Sheikh Zahed Gilani, during the reign of Shah Suleiman I. This hagiography, in praise of the Safavid forebears, was devoted to the genealogy of Safavid Sufi masters. Source: Wikipedia (en)
