Sufi Aphorism - Kitab al-Hikam (SOLD OUT)
By: Ibn Ata; Allah
Translation with an introduction notes
By: Victor Danner
Forwarded by: Martin Lings
This attractive and eloquent volume is one of the great basic texts of Islamic mysticism. A collection of 262 aphorisms that constitute a masterful summary of the truths of the Sufi Path, it combines the profound Sufi teachings and real charm of language that characterize the Hikm. It not only unfolds the integral Sufi doctrine on all levels, but it sows so in a manner calculated to appeal to pious Muslims in general. The powerful and yet gracious union o thought and language makes of the Hikm and memorizable work of universal appeal.
The main theme of the Hikam is Gnosis (Ma’rifah). In other words, instead of being a purely objective exposition of Oneness of Being, that doctrine is here deliberately “aimed” at the reader so that he may experience as it were a continual knocking on the doors of his intelligence. Bound up with this is the theme of Adab which, when it is a Sufi term, may be translated “pious courtesy”. Gnosis is not merely an act of the intelligence; it demands a total participation; and adab in its highest sense is the conformity of the soul, in all its different facets, to the Divine Presence
