Saint Nimatullah Kassab OLM (†1858), also known as "Al-Hardini" in reference to his birth village, was a Lebanese monk, priest, and scholar of the Maronite Church. Kassab is believed to have performed many miracles during his life due to his deep spirituality and high virtues. He is commended for having a radiant soul; it was said that he was deeply united to his creator. "The Saint of Kfifan" was stated to have the gift of prophesy and hence became known as "a man of vision." He is considered a holy patron of Beirut, Lebanon. He was beatified by Pope John Paul II on 10 May 1998 and canonized on Sunday, 16 May 2004. The Maronite Church celebrates his feast day on December 14.
