The Doctrine of Sufis : Translated from the Arabic of Abu Bakr al-Kalabadhi

Omtale

This 1935 English translation of a classic Arabic text in Sufism, the mystical aspect of Islam, by A. J. Arberry preserves the beauty and simplicity of the original without departing from a literal translation. The original is important because it is the earliest extant text to reconcile Sufism and orthodox Islam.
