In view of his considerable output and original contributions, especially to mystical thought, Bidel is considered one of the greatest poets of Indo-Persian tradition. The extent of Bidel`s influence on Indo-Persian, Urdu, Dari and Tajik literature is beyond measure and it seems to have increased with each succeeding generation of poets. In Afghanistan Bidel is still more appreciated than any other Persian poet. His influence persists as a vital pervasive force in village as well as urban literary circles. Branches of a cult group meet weekly to recite and deliberate on his works and enjoy the philosophical and mystic discourses of this son of India. The Tajik scholars regard Bidel`s language as Central Asian Tajik and consider him as innovator of Persian Tajik Literature.
A significant number of all the works of Bidel in manuscript and published editions in most of the Indian and foreign collections have been traced and systematically catalogued in the present work. Moreover 67 books and 61 research articles published in Persian, Urdu and English on the life and works of this poet have also been recorded in this catalogue. This all leads one to realize the widespread appeal and celebrity of Bidel in Persian World and Persianate Culture.
