He served for sixteen years as the court physician to the Muzaffarid ruler Shah Shuja , who ruled from 1358 to 1384 . Shah Shuja is famous for being the patron of the famous poet Hafez of Shiraz . Haji Attar's comprehensive Persian Pharmacopoeia of simple and compound remedies, the ''Ikhtiyarat-i Badi‘i'' was apparently composed for the Muzaffarid princess Badi‘ al-Jamal, who is named in the title of the treatise but of whom very little is known. He died in 1403. SOURCES For sources regarding his life, see:
