Summary: "Bagh O Bahar, or Tales of the Four Darweshes" by Amir Khusraw Dihlavi is a collection of captivating narratives likely composed in the 14th century. The tales revolve around the adventures of four wandering dervishes, exploring themes of love, destiny, and the philosophical insights of life through their experiences and encounters in a richly depicted Eastern landscape.
