Biography

The background and early life of Baha al-Din is obscure. He was a native of a place called Baghdadak in the Central Asian region of Khwarazm, and had a elder brother named Majd al-Din Baghdadi, a prominent mystic in the 12th and 13th centuries. Baha al-Din first rose to prominence during the reign of the Khwarazmshah Ala ad-Din Tekish (Шаблон:Reign), under whom he served as the head of the divan-e insha (chancellery). Baha al-Din was jailed twice due to his association with the Khwarazmian court; first for a short time after a disagreement with Tekish's vizier Nizam al-Mulk Shams al-Din Mas'ud Heravi, and later, he was imprisoned at Marv from 1186 to 1189 by Tekish's brother and rival for the throne, Sultanshah.Шаблон:Sfn It was during his second imprisonment that he wrote the Persian prose of Risala-ye habsiya ("Message from prison"). He was released from jail after the brothers made peace, and rejoined Tekish. According to the Haft eqlim of Amin Razi (died in the 17th-century), Baha al-Din retained his post during the reign of the next Khwarazmshah, Muhammad II (Шаблон:Reign), which according to the Iranologist Clifford Edmund Bosworth, however, is "hard to verity." Baha al-Din disappears in records after 1192.Шаблон:Sfn

Baha al-Din distinguished himself as a prominent writer through the quality of prose writings. His work was praised by poets such as Awfi and Sa'd al-Din Varavini.Шаблон:Sfn
