Al-Amālī, the dictation of sheikh al-Mfīd
Al-Amālī (Arabic: الأمالي, literally: dictations) is an Arabic book written by al-Shaykh al-Mufid (d. 413/1022) consisting of hadiths concerning moral issues, religious beliefs, and the history of Islam. The book was dictated by al-Shaykh al-Mufid to his students during seven years in the months of Ramadan within 42 meetings. Al-Najashi referred to the book as al-Amali al-Mutafarriqat (miscellaneous dictations) because its dictation took seven years from 404/1014 through 411/1021.
