12th-century Sunni Muslim theologian and philosopher

Afzal al-Dīn Badīl ibn ʿAlī ibn ʿOthmān (), commonly known as Khāqānī (, –  1199), was a major Persian poet and prose-writer. He was born in Shirvanshah, a vassal of the Seljuks in the region of Shirvan, where he served as an ode-writer to the Shirvanshahs. His fame most securely rests upon the qasidas collected in his Divān, and his autobiographical travelogue Tohfat al-ʿErāqayn. He is also notable for his contributions to the genre of habsiyāt ("prison poetry").
