Amir Arsalan Amir Arsalan-e Namdar (Persian: امیر ارسلان نامدار‎ ‎ ) is a popular Persian epic, which was told to Nasser al-Din Shah Qajar, the Qajar Shah of Persia in the 19th century (though the Persian legend itself is much older), by a storyteller named "Mohammad Ali Naqib al-Mamalek" (Persian: میرزا محمدعلی نقیب‌الممالک‎ ‎ ). Mohammad never transcribed the poem himself, but the daughter of the Shah—who also loved the story—eventually transcribed it and preserved it for history.
