===A Dream About the Book===
===A Dream About the Book===
According to [[Shaykh 'Abbas Qumi]] in his ''[[Safinat al-bihar]]'': Qadi Mu'izz al-Din Muhammad b. Taqi al-Din Isfahani—who was the judge of [[Isfahan]] and a scholar of [[fiqh]] and [[kalam]] and a mathematician in the period of [[Shah 'Abbas Safawi]]—said that he saw one of the [[Imams (a)]] in his dreams. The Imam told him to write down ''Miftah al-falah'' and comply with its instructions. He said: when I woke up, I asked scholars about the book, but they said that they never heard of such a book. At that time, al-Shaykh al-Baha'i had traveled to a part of [[Iran]] together with the Shah's army. When he returned to Isfahan, Qadi Mu'izz al-Din asked him about the book. Baha'i said: in this travel, I wrote a supplication book under ''Miftah al-falah'' and I have not told anyone about it. He then cried and gave his manuscript to Qadi. This was the first copy written from al-Shaykh al-Baha'i's manuscript.
