Description
This book comprises a study and an critical edition. The study is the first in Arabic on Najm al-Din Kubra, this remarkable and brilliant Sufi figure, whose significant role in our cultural history has been largely overlooked by contemporary Sufi studies. The critical edition presents one of the most magnificent Sufi texts in the history of Islam.
In his study and critical edition of *The Fragrances of Beauty*, Dr. Yusuf Zaydan continues the legacy of his predecessors, making important contributions to the contemporary Arabic library through his work on Sufi literary heritage. His work reveals further hidden richness within this heritage.
A reference book on Islamic Sufism by Najm al-Din Kubra, it begins with an introduction to the author and a biographical overview. The book is a translation of the work of the Islamic Sufi scholar Najm al-Din Kubra, covering his biography, his teachers, his students, and his Sufi path. A separate chapter is dedicated to his writing style and works, providing a summary of each of his books. The book then presents an edition of his work, “Fayih al-Jamal wa Fawatih al-Jalal” (The Fragrance of Beauty and the Openings of Majesty). The book includes several indexes, distinguished by their names, topics, hadiths, verses, and rhymes.
