This book is perhaps the first of its kind in both Arabic and foreign libraries. It addresses a rare subject that many are wary of due to its need for extensive knowledge in the history and science of monotheistic religions and their roots.
The Mandaean religion is still shrouded in mystery and ambiguity, especially when the subject is mythology, which seeks to explain, analyze, and interpret Mandaean myths, which represent the first threshold of Gnosticism and monotheism.
This book will, for a very long time, be unique in its subject matter and will provide readers and researchers with the true keys to understanding the Mandaean religion and exploring its depths, far removed from the superficial books that have been written about it.
It places Mandaean myths within a comprehensive cosmic cycle that begins with creation, then civilization, then destruction, and ends with death and annihilation. In doing so, it establishes a connection between the subject of the myths and the time of their occurrence. Despite the author’s prolific output in the fields of mythology, history, and religious studies, this book appears to us to be his most important, due to its scholarly precision, objectivity, unique subject matter, and captivating style.
