Шаблон:Short description Hakim Iranshah ibn Abi al-Khayr (Шаблон:Lang-fa), commonly known as Iranshah (Шаблон:Lang; or Iranshan), was a Persian poet who lived in the Seljuk Empire in the 11th and 12th centuries.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn

Iranshah is the author of two epic poems, Kush-nama and Bahman-nama, both written in the same style as the Shahnama of Ferdowsi (died 1019/25).Шаблон:Sfn Although no mention of its author is made in either of the works, the Mujmal al-tavarikh va al-qisas (written in 1126) credits Iranshah with its composition.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn Iranshah most likely wrote the Bahman-nama between 1092 and 1108, as indicated by mentions of historical events, and reverence of the sultans Mahmud I (Шаблон:Reign) and Muhammad I Tapar (Шаблон:Reign). Set in the mythological Iranian world, the work tells the adventures of Kay Bahman, the son of Isfandiyar.Шаблон:Sfn Iranshah states that the Bahman-nama was inspired by the ceaseless battles and wars of his patron, Muhammad I Tapar, which reminded him of the ceaseless battles between Bahman and Rostam's family. This implies that the work was also written to serve as advice for solving the socio-political issues of the time.Шаблон:Sfn

The Kush-nama was written between 1108 and 1111, and is referred to as Qessa-ye Kush-e Pil-Dandan ("the tale of Kush the Tusked") and Akhbar-e Kush-e Pil-Dandan ("accounts of Kush the Tusked") in the Mujmal al-tavarikh. Also mythological in nature, it tells the story of Kush the Tusked (or Pil-gush, "The Elephant-eared"), the son of Kush (brother of the evil king Zahhak).Шаблон:Sfn

The modern Iranian historian Jalal Matini ranks Iranshah as the third best writer of epic poetry among his contemporaries, behind Ferdowsi's Shahnama and Asadi Tusi's Garshasp-nama.Шаблон:Sfn

The correct spelling of Iranshah's name is uncertain. He is called "Iranshan" in two out of four books of the Mujmal al-tavarikh, while in the other two he is called "Iranshah" and "Inshah."Шаблон:Sfn Modern historians refer to him as either Iranshah or Iranshan.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn He was a Muslim, albeit it is unknown if he was either Sunni or Shi'i.Шаблон:Sfn
