About the Author:
Abu 'Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami was one of the most prominent personalities of Sufism in the 10th century. Elena Biagi is a translator and teacher of Arabic language and Islamic culture. She is also a linguistic and cultural mediator.
Review:
'[This] masterly translation of Sulami's treatise, so carefully annotated and commented, conveys into English the brilliance and intensity of the original Arabic. This work will undoubtedly contribute in making Sufism better known.'
--Dr. Giuseppe Scattolin, Professor of Islamic Mysticism
