*by Y***B on Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 2017*

Fantastic book for spiritual travelers who seek to understand the Arabic proverb, 'Tie your camel, then leave it to God.' Where does the tying end and the leaving it to God begin? Ultimately a question about free will and destiny, answered by Shaykh Ibn Ata'Allah using parables, exhortations, prose and poetry.I really enjoy Kugle's translation, although it seemed somewhat unnecessary to turn 'Qur'an' into 'Divine Speech', and, in the passage where Ibn Ata'Allah enumerates 'The Ten Ways toward Wisdom' the awkward rhyming of each way is jarring and distracting. For example:"The advent of subtle gifts help as bear affliction's rifts," and "God's unveiling divine beauty eases our facing God's actions with humane duty."I cringe whenever I read those, yet the rest of the book is beautiful and above all eminently useful to the serious seeker.

    Accessible Sufi Teachings For the English-Speaking Audience
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2007*

In many ways, the deep and meaningful teachings of Tasawwuf [Sufi'ism] have become watered down to a cardboard, meaningless "New Age" spiritual practice. For many valid reasons Sufi'ism has appealed to many non-Muslims because of its universalities and its ability to speak to "all travelers on the Path". One significant issue that I've often had truck with over many of the writers/translators of Sufi works is that they ignored that fact that many of the Sufi masters were deeply religious people, who had mastered the basics of the religion [mandatory daily prayer, fasting, yearly alms-giving, pilgrimage and so forth] and having gone beyond that also mastered such sciences as jurisprudence [fiqh], Arabic grammar, rhetoric, rhetorical language [balaaghah] and so forth. But as the author points out in the introduction, something key happened with many of these Sufi masters - the obligatory wasn't enough. They needed something that would also soothe and treat the heart. They created a synthesis that was founded in religious fundamentals [not to be conflated with fundamentalism] and sought to formulate a system that would deal with issues of the self [shahawaat or nafs]. Ibn 'Ata' Allah al-Iskandari was a great Sufi personality. As you will read in this volume, he is a man that went through great personal, spiritual and religious transformation in the pursuit of self-rectification. I highly recommend this read as it is highly accessible; an academic piece that allows for the inclusion of a broader audience. In my opinion, this would be in keeping with the teachings of Ibn 'Ata' Allah himself [and Tasawwuf in general]. You'll enjoy this read.

    The sufi way of life.
  

*by B***R on Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2018*

For anyone interested in understanding the sufi way of life this book is a must read. As usual, editions by Fons Vitae are the best for translation accuracy and remarkable adherence to original arabic text. Second hand book in very good condition, almost new.
