Excerpt from Gulshan I Raz; The Mystic Rose Garden: Of Sa'd Ud Din Mahmud Shabistari, the Persian Text, With an English Translation and Notes, Chiefly From the Commentary of Muhammad Bin Yahya Lahiji
The Gulshan i Raz was composed in A.H. 717 (A.D. 1317), in answer to fifteen questions on the doctrines of the Sufis, or Muhammadan Mystics, propounded by Amir Syad Hosaini, a celebrated Sufi doctor of Herat. The author's name was Sa'd ud din Mahimud Shabistari, so called from his birth-place, Shabistar, a village near Tabriz, in the province of Azarbaijan. From a brief notice of his life in the Mujalis ul 'Ushshak, repeated in substance in the Haft Iklim, the Safina i Khushgu, and the Riaz ush Shu'ara, it would appear that he was born about the middle of the seventh century of the Hejira (A.D. 1250), and that he died at Tabriz, where he had passed the greater part of his life, in A.H. 720. The only particulars of his life recorded in these Tazkiras are, that he was devotedly attached to one of his disciples named Shaikh Ibrahim, and that in addition to the Gulshan i Raz he wrote treatises entitled Hakk ul Yakin and Risala i Shahid. No further information as to the circumstances of his life and times is to be found in the poem itself or in the commentary, but we know from the Habib us Siyar and other chronicles that his birth was about contemporaneous with the incursion of the heathen Moghuls under Hulaku Khan, the conquest of Persia, Syria and Mesopotamia, and the downfall of the Abbaside Khalifs, or "Vicars of God."

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. Composed in the 14th century, this book delves into the mystical doctrines of Sufism, a branch of Islam focused on the individual's spiritual connection with the Divine. Through a series of questions and answers, the author explores profound themes of love, self-annihilation, and ultimate union with the One. Drawing on both Islamic scripture and the philosophical ideas of figures like Plato and Plotinus, the author constructs a compelling argument for the illusory nature of the phenomenal world and the sole reality of the Divine. This journey towards union necessitates shedding the limitations of self and embracing the guidance of the inner light, a process likened to the ascent of a mountain or the return of a drop of water to the ocean. While acknowledging the importance of outward religious practices, the author emphasizes the primacy of inner transformation and the cultivation of a saintly disposition. This state of perfect harmony attracts the Divine Spirit, leading to a mystical marriage and the blossoming of virtue. Ultimately, this book offers a captivating glimpse into the Sufi path, illuminating the journey towards self-realization and the profound unity of all things in the Divine.
