    • c. 1060, Nāṣir-i Khusraw, Safarnāma [Book of Travels]‎[1]:
      در شمیران مردی نیک دیدم، از دربند بود، نامش ابوالفضل خلیفه بن علی الفیلسوف. مردی اهل بود و با ما کرامت‌ها کرد و کرم‌ها نمود و با هم بحث‌ها کردیم و دوستی افتاد میان ما. مرا گفت: چه عزم داری؟ گفتم: سفر قبله را نیت کرده‌ام. گفت: حاجت من آنست که به هنگام مراجعت گذر بر اینجا کنی تا تو را باز ببینم.

      In Shemīrān there was a good man from Derbent, whose name was Abū al-Faẓl Khalīfa, son of Alī the Philosopher. He was a noble man, and was generous towards us and showed us courtesies. We chatted with each other, and friendship grew between us. He said to me, "What are your plans?" I said, "I have set my mind on journeying to the qibla." He said, "I hope when you return, you pass by here so that I can see you again."
