Abdullah Al Anari (3 results)

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Path for the Perplexed presents a fresh and illuminating reimagining of one of the foundational texts of Islamic mysticism. Originally composed nearly a thousand years ago by the celebrated Persian Sufi master Abdullah Ansari of Herat, the Manazil al-Sairin was the first Persian work to systematically articulate the spiritual stations of the Sufi path. Ansari known as Pir-i Herat, the Sage of Herat was a Quranic commentator, Hanbali scholar, poet and spiritual guide whose influence continues to shape the intellectual and devotional history of Islam.This new translation by Dr Ali A. Allawi goes beyond rendering Ansaris words into contemporary language. With his added commentary, it offers a thoughtful re-envisioning of the Manazil for modern seekers, while remaining firmly rooted in the spiritual universe of Islam. Drawing on the classical model of the self as articulated through the Quranic stages of the soul culminating in Insan al-Kamil, the complete human being the work guides readers through a transformative inner journey of self-knowledge and refinement.Expanded and structured as a yearly course by Muslim scholar Julia A. Katarina, the book introduces an additional stage, redefines key gateways, and features practical spiritual exercises and adhkar (litanies) for both seekers and guides. At once faithful and innovative, Path for the Perplexed offers a living encounter with a timeless mystical masterpiece, reflecting the depth of study and devotion invested in this remarkable work. A Sufi workbook for personal and spiritual development, updated for present times. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
