The Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya is one of the few books written in the first century of Hijri and has been widely circulated among Shiites from the very beginning. Shaykh al-Mufid (d. 413 AH) in his book al-Irshad; al-Khazzaz al-Qummi in Kifayat al-Athar; Shaykh al-Tusi in his two books al-Fihrist and al-Rijal; and al-Najashi in Rijal al-Najashi have all referred to this book. In addition, Shaykh al-Tusi, in his prayer book Misbah al-Mutahajjid, has included eight supplications from the Sahifa. Qutb al-Rawandi (d. 573 AH); Sayyid ibn Tawus (d. 664 AH); al-Shahid al-Awwal, al-Kaf'ami in Al-Misbah, and others have also included the supplications of the Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya in their works. | The Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya is one of the few books written in the first century of Hijri and has been widely circulated among Shiites from the very beginning.

==Manuscripts and Publications of Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya== | |||
The Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya is one of the books that has numerous handwritten manuscripts. [17] In Iran alone, over three thousand handwritten manuscripts of this book have been recorded. [17] One of the oldest manuscripts of the Sahifa (dated 695 AH) is preserved in the library of Ayatollah Mar'ashi Najafi. [17] During the renovations of the shrine of Imam Rida in 1969 CE, another ancient manuscript of the Sahifa was discovered, dated 416 AH. [17] Interestingly, all the narrators of this manuscript are from the Sunni tradition. [18] The Astan Quds Razavi has published this manuscript, which differs from the more commonly known versions and is incomplete. [19] | |||
