Chahal Asrar (Persian: چهل اسرار, lit. 'Forty Secrets') also spelled Chahal e Asrar, Chahalul Asrar, or Chahlul Asrar is a collection of forty Persian ghazals attributed to Mir Syed Ali Hamadani (1314–1384 CE), a Sufi saint and scholar of the Kubrawiya order, known as Shah-e-Hamadan in Kashmir. Also referred to as "The Forty Secrets," the poems explore themes of divine love and spiritual enlightenment and are recited during religious occasions in Kashmir, particularly Mawlid (the Prophet Muhammad's birthday). The collection is a significant part of Hamadani's legacy, reflecting his role in shaping Kashmir's Islamic and cultural traditions.
