by Shaykh Abdalqadir As-Sufi (Author)
A series of enlightening discourses delivered in Cape Town, South Africa, by the leader of the Qadiri-Shadhili-Darqawi Tariqa in explanation of two Qur'anic passages and various Sufic texts and qasidas. Among the poems he examines are the famous 'Khamriyya' of Ibn al-Farid and qasidas from the Diwan of Shaykh Muhammad ibn al-Habib. A pure Sufic treatise, this book contains, among many other things, a definitive statement on the vital technical term 'khayal' as used by Shaykh Ibn al-'Arabi al-Hatimi, correcting Orientalist misconceptions about it and providing a real framework within which to understand the true processes of Divine illumination.
