Who is Pourya-ye Vali?
Pahlavan Mahmoud Khwarazmi more commonly known as Pourya-ye Vali was an Iranian Sufi and champion. He is famous for his chivalrous behavior and his strength and is still a paradigm for Zurkhaneh athletes.
The nickname of Qtaly known as Pahlavan Mahmoud al-Khwarizmi, has been attributed to Pourya-ye Vali in Iran. His tomb is discussed in two towns, one in Khiva, Uzbekistan and the other one in Khoy, Iran.
He also wrote a book titled Kanz ol-Haghayegh in Persian. A couplet from him which is being sung in Zurkhaneh is as below:
Oftadegi amouz agar taleb-e feizi,
Hargez nakhorad aab zamini ke boland ast
Literally:
Learn modesty, if you desire knowledge,
A highland would never be irrigated by a river
