Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Description Khwaja Abdullah Ansari-Pir-i-Herat, or 'Sage of Herat'-who lived in the eleventh century, is revered as one of the world's great and earliest Sufis. He turned to tasawwuf (Islamic mysticism) at a very young age, and came to be regarded as an extraordinary teacher, mystic, and an authority on Islam. Thousands were drawn to him and became his followers, and to this day his poetry and prose-collected in Persian and Arabic texts that are widely regarded as masterpieces-inspire and instruct scholars, seekers and the pious faithful alike. Abdullah Ansari's tomb in Herat, in modern-day Afghanistan-a country ravaged in recent decades by discord and violence-remains a place of pilgrimage and peace for millions. In that beautiful sanctuary and elsewhere-including Panipat in India, where his descendants settled in the thirteenth century-his legacy and teachings continue to give solace to humanity, guiding us towards humility and compassion. This compilation of Abdullah Ansari's invocations, prayers and counsels, selected from translations by two celebrated scholars, is a book of wisdom for all times. It is of particular relevance today, over a millennium after these words were spoken and recorded. As Syeda Hameed writes in her introduction, for our highly troubled and deeply hurt world, this is the healing hand of a wise Sufi Pir.

Book excerpt: Munajat: The Intimate Prayers of Khwajih 'Abd Allah Ansari, 1975, xxv, 84. Throughout human history man has addressed intimate & personal prayers to his Lord. In Islam these prayers are called 'Munajat,' from an Arabic root which encompasses the idea of rescue, deliverance, & safeguard. Among the collections of Munajat, one of the most famous is that of Khwajih Abdullah Ansari, a famous Persian mystic who was born & lived most of his life in Herat, now in Afghanistan. The Khaneghah of Maleknia Naseralishah (PO Box 665, Palisades, NY 10964) has published an annotated edition of Ansari's Munajat in Persian & English, translated by Lawrence Morris & Rustam Sarfeh, M.D. Samples from the 130 prayers in the collection: "O God, all fear Thee, but Abdullah fears himself, for from Thee comes all good, but from him all evil." O God, Thou hast said 'I am generous.' All our trust & hope are in this. And since Thou hast said 'I am merciful,' despair in us is forbidden." "O God, by the Mercy of the Name that Thou art, & by the honor of those qualities that are Thine, come to my rescue, since Thou alone has the power."

Book excerpt: "This book provides the first ever overview of the history and development of Islam in Afghanistan. It covers every era from the conversion of Afghanistan through the medieval and early modern periods to the present day. Based on primary sources in Arabic, Persian, Pashto, Urdu and Uzbek, its depth and scope of coverage is unrivalled by any existing publication on Afghanistan. As well as state-sponsored religion, the chapters cover such issues as the rise of Sufism, Sharia, women's religiosity, transnational Islamism and the Taliban. Islam has been one of the most influential social and political forces in Afghan history. Providing idioms and organizations for both anti-state and anti-foreign mobilization, Islam has proven to be a vital socio-political resource in modern Afghanistan. Even as it has been deployed as the national cement of a multi-ethnic 'Emirate' and then 'Islamic Republic,' Islam has been no less a destabilizing force in dividing Afghan society. Yet despite the universal scholarly recognition of the centrality of Islam to Afghan history, its developmental trajectories have received relatively little sustained attention outside monographs and essays devoted to particular moments or movements. To help develop a more comprehensive, comparative and developmental picture of Afghanistan's Islam from the eighth century to the present, this edited volume brings together specialists on different periods, regions and languages. Each chapter forms a case study 'snapshot' of the Islamic beliefs, practices, institutions and authorities of a particular time and place in Afghanistan"--Provided by publishe

Book excerpt: Sufism is a religion which emphasizes direct knowledge of the divine within each person, and meditation, music, song, and dance are seen as crucial spiritual strides toward attaining unity with God. Sufi paths of mysticism and devotion, motivated by Islamic ideals, are still chosen by men and women in countries from Morocco to China, and there are nearly one hundred orders around the world, eighty of which are present and thriving in the United States. The Chishti Sufi order has been the most widespread and popular of all Sufi traditions since the twelfth-century. Sufi Martyrs of Love offers a critical perspective on Western attitudes towards Islam and Sufism, clarifying its contemporary importance, both in the West and in traditional Sufi homelands. Finally, it provides access to the voices of Sufi authorities, through the translation of texts being offered in English for the first time.

Book excerpt: Stations of the Sufi Path: The one Hundred Fields (Sad Maydan) of Abdullah Ansari of Herat, is a key Sufi text and the first in Persian to address the stages, or stations, of the Sufi way. Its author Abdullah Ansari (396/1006-448/1056) is considered one of the greatest and most prolific of the Persian Sufi scholars, and his works constitute an important contribution to the intellectual history of Islam. His writings address both exoteric philosophy and esoteric understanding, and range from Qur'an exegesis to devotional invocations and biographies of the Sufis, from literature and poetry to civil morality and ethics, always emphasizing the divine law as well as the divine truth as the way toward understanding. The One Hundred Fields was written by a spiritual teacher to serve as a Sufi manual for guiding novices. Its clearly defined and detailed descriptions of each 'station' make this work an esoteric masterpiece, almost one thousand years old. that still invites the reader on a spiritual journey of self-discovery. Nahid Angha provides the first complete annotated translation into English together with a full introduction. It will be of interest to the specialist in Sufism as well as to the general reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At publication date, a free ebook version of this title will be available through Luminos, University of California Press’s Open Access publishing program. Visit www.luminosoa.org to learn more. Persian is one of the great lingua francas of world history. Yet despite its recognition as a shared language across the Islamic world and beyond, its scope, impact, and mechanisms remain underexplored. A world historical inquiry into pre-modern cosmopolitanism, The Persianate World traces the reach and limits of Persian as a Eurasian language in a comprehensive survey of its geographical, literary, and social frontiers. From Siberia to Southeast Asia, and between London and Beijing, this book shows how Persian gained, maintained, and finally surrendered its status to imperial and vernacular competitors. Fourteen essays trace Persian’s interactions with Bengali, Chinese, Turkic, Punjabi, and other languages to identify the forces that extended “Persographia,” the domain of written Persian. Spanning the ages expansion and contraction, The Persianate World offers a critical survey of both the supports and constraints of one of history’s key languages of global exchange.
