Abu al-Faraj Yusuf al-Tarsusi (d. 447/1055) was a Sufi of Baghdad, the link between Abd al-Wahid al-Tamimi and Abu al-Hasan al-Hakkari in the Qadiri chain. He is cited in the TDV Encyclopedia of Islam's "Abdülkādir-i Geylânî" article within the initiatic chain reaching back to Junayd al-Baghdadi. Information on his life is limited to silsila and hagiographic records, and the exact location of his grave is unknown.
