Subhat al-Abrar (سبحة الابرار) - The Rosary of the Pious (Fourth Masnavi of Jami's Haft Awrang)

Subhat al-Abrar (The Rosary of the Pious) is the fourth masnavi within Jami's Haft Awrang. It is organized as a chain of forty iqd (knots or rosary beads), each a self-contained discourse on a spiritual station or virtue — for example devotion (irada), spiritual zeal (ghayrat), freedom, chivalry (futuwwah), truthfulness (sidq), sincerity (ikhlas), contentment, and humility. Each knot is typically introduced by a munajat (supplication) that transitions from the preceding virtue to the next. This masnavi is the immediate structural container for the individual numbered knot-sections (بخش), which should sit beneath it rather than directly beneath the whole seven-work Haft Awrang collection.
