Marvels of the Heart is thought to be the key volume of the 40-book Ihya' 'Ulum-Al Din—Revival of the Religious Sciences—, the most read work in the Muslim world after the Qur’an, and considered by many to be the Summa Theologica of Islam. These traditional teaching stories, which use the theme of the heart as a mirror, illustrate key tenets of Islam on the requirements of religion, living in society, and the inner life of the soul.

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This is a classic Sufi manual on the 'science of the heart'. For Sufis, the 'heart' is the seat of the soul and holds the key to the intimate relationship that exists between soul and body. Each heart, according to this traditional wisdom, possesses four qualities: predatory, animal, demonic and divine. The latter represents our true origin and potential, and by use of the intelligence and spiritual practices enabled by God's grace, we may restore equilibrium to our inner core. This text offers traditional Sufi teaching stories to illustrate the theme of the heart as the mirror and key to the intimate relationship between the heart and the soul.
