to complete the list, it would be good if someone went thru Attar's Tadhkirat ul-Owliya and listed the names he mentions on the list.

The list here is lacking.

For example, I dont see Suhrevardi's name here. Or Abu Saeed Abul'Kheir. Both giants of sufism.--Zereshk 08:28, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I can't find any Wikipedia articles on them. Although it's sometimes good to have red names on a list, it can excite expansion on a topic like when I got into turning red names blue at List of chinese painters, I get the sense too many on a List of people by belief is potentially risky at the moment. Also either way if they are giants of Sufism someone should start those articles someday. I hope you're sure Suhrevardi and Abu Saeed Abul'Kheir are standard transliterations of them.--T.
