Do you ever feel like your heart is searching for a sense of peace that the modern world just can’t provide? We often look for big, complex answers to our problems, yet our souls crave simple wisdoms that bring us back to our Creator.
The Aphorisms of Ibn ‘Ata’ Allah has been a spiritual classic for seven centuries. It is not just a collection of quotes, but a series of reflections that have guided and grounded people through all these years. The goal isn’t just to read the words, but to let them sit with you, unfolding new meanings as you go about your day.
This Arabic-English edition features the masterful translation of Dr Tarek Elgawhary, an Azhari-trained scholar, who has translated this thirteenth century classic for the twenty-first century reader. His contemporary translation captures the rhythmic power of the original Arabic without sacrificing depth of meaning.
Each aphorism is given its own page to allow for slow, reflective reading in a luxury hardback, jacketed edition that is a pleasure to own or gift to a loved one.
