'''Abu l-Qāsim Ḥasan Manṣūr''', known as '''Abu l-Qāsim Ferdowsi''' (Persian: {{ia|ابوالقاسم فردوسی}}), (b. [[329]]/941 — d. [[411]]/1020) was an Iranian poet and epicist of 4th/[[10th]] century. He was born in Pāj, a village in [[Khorasan]]. One of his famous works is [[Shahnameh]], in which the lives of the kings of [[Iran]] are narrated in poems. Historians have reported that he spent all his wealth in this way, but his effort was not accepted by [[Shah Mahmud Ghaznavi]] and some sources considered it because of the religious opposition between Ferdowsi and Shah Mahmud. [[Sayyid Hasan Amin]] considered Ferdowsi's approach in composing Shahnameh, adopted from the [[Qur'an]]'s method. About Ferdowsi's religion, different views have been mentioned. [['Abd al-Jalil Qazwini]] was the first person who introduced Ferdowsi [[Shi'a]] in his book ''[[al-Naqḍ]]''. | '''Abu l-Qāsim Ḥasan Manṣūr''', known as '''Abu l-Qāsim Ferdowsi''' (Persian: {{ia|ابوالقاسم فردوسی}}), (b.
