Synopsis Physicians of the Heart: A Sufi View of the 99 Names of Allah by : Wali Ali Meyer

It is a vehicle for understanding the infinite nature of God, and for discovering the divine potential in every soul.

Synopsis Divine Names by : Rosina-Fawzia al-Rawi

The path to self-discovery and inner and outer peace... Divine Names is a unique contribution to understanding life and oneself on a deeper level: by learning to open to the Divine. It draws on original Arabic literature—often not available in European languages—and on the author’s many years of personal practice, teaching, and guiding others on their spiritual paths to healing, to becoming whole. It focuses on the use of the Divine Names in dhikr, individual meditations and healing practices. Whether we admit it or not, human beings are searchers: we want to understand; we want to know; we want to be known. Our quest may take many forms, yet ultimately it ends in nothing but pure praising of the Divine, even if this comes after our last breath. The outside always furthers the inside because the task and the meaning of life is always about reuniting—about connecting everything on the outside to its inner truth. It is the knowledge of the heart which is always capable of uniting. Such is the path of the Sufis. The Sufi tradition centers on the opening of the heart and nothing touches the heart as much as beauty. In this book, the author’s unique style of writing, which combines clarity and poetic inspiration, is coupled with distinctive and ornamental Arabic calligraphy of each of the 99 Divine Names to make it a visually stunning tribute to this tradition. It will be enjoyed regardless of a person’s religious beliefs.

Synopsis The Sufi Book of Life by : Neil Douglas-Klotz

Part meditation book, part oracle, and part collection of Sufi lore, poetry, and stories, The Sufi Book of Life offers a fresh interpretation of the fundamental spiritual practice found in all ancient and modern Sufi schools—the meditations on the 99 Qualities of Unity. Unlike most books on Sufism, which are primarily collections of translated Sufi texts, this accessible guide is a handbook that explains how to apply Sufi principles to modern life. With inspirational commentary that connects each quality with contemporary concerns such as love, work, and success, as well as timeless wisdom from Sufi masters, both ancient and modern, such as Rumi, Hafiz, Shabistari, Rabia, Inayat Khan, Indries Shah, Irina Tweedie, Bawa Muhaiyadden, and more, The Sufi Book of Life is a dervish guide to life and love for the twenty-first century.

Synopsis The Repose of the Spirits by : Ahmad Sam'ānī

The Repose of the Spirits is a translation of one of the earliest and most comprehensive treatises on Sufism in the Persian language. Written by Aḥmad Sam'ānī, an expert in Islamic law from a famous Central Asian scholarly family in about the year 1135, it is one of the handful of early Sufi texts available in English and is by far the most accessible. It also may well be the longest and the most accurately translated. Ostensibly a commentary on the divine names, it avoids the abstract discourse of theological nitpicking and explains the human significance of the names with a delightful mix of Quranic verses and sayings of the Prophet and various past teachers, interspersed with original interpretations of the received wisdom. Unlike the usual books on the divine names (such as that of al-Ghazali), The Repose of the Spirits reminds the reader of the later poetical tradition, especially the work of Rumi. The prose is richly embroidered with imagery and interspersed with a great variety of Arabic and Persian poetry. What is especially remarkable is the manner in which the author speaks to his readers about their own personal situations, explaining why they are driven by a love affair with God, a God who is full of compassion and good humor, whether they know it or not. William C. Chittick's masterful new translation brings this work to an English-language audience for the first time.

Synopsis The Ninety-nine Beautiful Names of God by : Ghazzālī

In this work, here presented in a complete English edition for the first time, the problem of knowing God is confronted in an original and stimulating way. Taking up the Prophet's teaching that 'Ninety-nine Beautiful Names' are truly predicated of God, Ghazali explores the meaning and resonance of each of these divine names, and reveals the functions they perform both in the cosmos and in the soul of the spiritual adept. Although some of the book is rigorously analytical, the author never fails to attract the reader with his profound mystical and ethical insights, which, conveyed in his sincere and straightforward idiom, have made of this book one of the perennial classics of Muslim thought, popular among Muslims to this day. This volume won a British Book Design and Production Award in 1993.

Synopsis Love of Uwaysi by : Muharrem Karabay

Love of Uwaysi is a definitive love journey to the one, the unique, the only god, Allah. This book is the most extraordinary book ever written, which will teach all its readers to know and meet with Allah as they have never before experienced firsthand.Allah once said, "I was a treasure. I have wanted to be known and be loved only." With this exceptional book, for the very first time in history, our Lord Allah reveals Himself and provides concrete, solid proofs as to his very existence for every soul who would like to get to know Him and to love Him. Here, the last of the genuine sufis living in the 21st century, our teacher Muharrem Karabay, with the will of Allah, teaches all readers of this book the real Sufism and the way to know, learn, and love the only god, Allah. With the release of this book, Karabay teaches us how to be a genuine lover of Allah and His Messenger with the Uwaysi Dhikr. He also shows us how one could achieve a remarkably higher mental status in this life and in the hereafter in such a way that you could not possibly have thought of before. As this way has not previously been taught to anyone else, the book in your hands is literally the very first of its kind in history. In this compelling book, you will not only be amazed and, in places, shocked, but you will also have a chance to change your life forever in an incredibly positive manner and, perhaps most importantly, to be a part of a very, very special story in this significant part of history that we are living in today. This book was not written with respect to possibilities or probabilities. It has been tasted and seen. This means that it was literally put into words after experiencing everything firsthand. Once you read this book, if you implement what is written inside, you will meet and learn about our unique god, Allah, in way that you were never told before, and you will eventually fall in love with Him and with His Messenger, too. You will taste and see for yourself. You will feel and start to realize what the real meaning of Love is. You will experience the very same beauty firsthand, as was previously experienced by the old scholars and dervishes-Mavlana Rumi, Sams, Abdulqadir Gilani, Hodja Ahmad Yasawi, Bursevi, Yunus Emre, Imam Ghazali, and many other blessed dervishes and saints. Releasing this Love of Uwaysi in English means that the 2nd Age of Happiness has officially started, and the time has now come for the world to meet with Uwais Al-Qarni (the Master of Love) and his Uwaysi Dhikr and way. With the release of this book, atheism and agnosticism come to a definite, natural end. At the same time, Hinduism, Buddhism, and any other polytheist fake beliefs will now come to an end and finalize their times in history. Those who are able to think and start doing the Uwaysi Dhikr will initially feel an unprecedented peace inside that will be followed by several extraordinarily beautiful states as explained in detail in this book. All readers of this book will also comprehend the message that was actually delivered by all of Allah's previous 124,000 prophets, including prophets Adam, Moses, Jesus, and Mohammad (peace be upon them), the universal and very same message of Tawheed (Unity).Rumi once said, "Come, whoever you may be, come again." Why to wait for then? Whereas, we would say, "Many were invited; very few have joined." You are now among the invited ones. Taste and see for yourself.

Synopsis The Great Satan 'Eblis' by : Javād Nūrbakhsh

THE GREAT SATAN ELBIS presents both favorable and unfavorable interpretations of Satan, from the Sufi point of view that Satan does not exist as a power before God but as a symbol for the ego and its passions.
