Prophethood and Sainthood in the Doctrine of Ibn Arabi
MICHEL CHODKIEWICZ

The Secret of Secrets
Abd Al-Qadir Al-Jilani
Translated by: Tosun Bayrak
This is a translation of Sirr al-Asrar by Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani (1077-1166AD), considered by many to be one of the greatest saints of Islam and the eponymous founder of the Qadiriyya order.

Mantiqu’t-Tair - Faridu'd-din 'Attar
Presented and translated by: Peter Avery
Mantiqu’t-Tair is one of the masterpieces of Persian literature. In The Speech of the Birds, Peter Avery has not only given us a precise and moving translation, but also ample annotation providing much information to fill in what Attar would have expected his readers to know.


 

Sufi Metaphysics and Qur’anic Prophets
Ibn Arabi’s Thought and Method in the Fusus al-Hikam
RONALD L NETTLER
The Fusus al-Hikam is acknowledged to be a summary statement of the sufi metaphysics of the ‘Greatest Master’, Ibn Arabi (1165-1240AD). Ronald Nettler examines ten chapters from the Fusus which exemplify the ideas, method and perspective of the entire work. Sufi Metaphysics and Qur’anic Prophets serves not only as an explication of Ibn Arabi’s thought in the Fusus, but is also a great aid in the overall understanding of Ibn Arabi’s thought.
