Book excerpt: THREE GREAT SUFI POETS OF ANDALUSIA Abu Madyan, Ibn 'Arabi & Al-Shushtari SELECTED POEMS Translation & Introduction Paul Smith ABU MADYAN (1126-1198) was a Sufi teacher, scholar and writer and poet. Some say he is the most important founder of Sufism in the Maghreb and Andalusia.. He received his religious education in Fez, where he underwent the influence of the teachings of Gilani, Abu Yaza, and al-Ghazali. After his pilgrimage to Mecca and studies in the Middle East, he returned to teach in Bougie, Algeria. Ibn 'Arabi called Abu Madyan 'the teacher of teachers'. IBN 'ARABI (1165-1240). In the West, he is also known as the Doctor Maximus and in the Islamic world as al-Shaykh al-Akbar (Great Master.) He was born in Murcia in Andalusia, At the age of thirty-five he left Spain intending to make the hajj to Mecca. He lived near Mecca for three years, where he began writing The Meccan Illuminations). In 1204 he left for Anatolia. He finished his influential and controversial book of poems The Interpreter of Ardent Desires in 1215. In 1223 he settled in Damascus where he lived the last seventeen years of his life. A prolific writer, Ibn 'Arabi is generally known as the prime exponent of the idea later known as the 'Unity of Being'. AL-SHUSHTARI (1212-1269) was a Sufi poet who was born in Guadix, northwest of Granada, Spain. As a young man he travelled to Tunisia, Algeria, Damascus and several times made the pilgrimage to Mecca. He finally settled in Egypt. He became a devotee of the Sufi Master Ibn Sab'in. Al-Shushtari composed two treatises on Sufism. Often when walking or riding the poet would sing his poems and play an instrument as he did so. He was influenced by Ibn 'Arabi.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AL-SHUSHTARI The Great Sufi Poet of Andalusia SELECTED POEMS Translation & Introduction by Paul Smith Abu al-Hasan al-Shushtari (1312-1369) was a Sufi poet who was born in Guadix, northwest of Granada, Spain. As a young man he travelled to Tunisia, Algeria, Damascus and several times made the pilgrimage to Mecca. He finally settled in Egypt. He became a devotee of the Sufi Master Ibn Sab'in who was four years younger than him and was widely respected at that time. They first met in Algeria when in their thirties and later went together to Mecca and Egypt. Al-Shushtari composed two treatises on Sufism and dedicated three poems to his spiritual Master. Often when walking or riding the poet would sing his poems and play an instrument as he did so. In his latter days he had many disciples. He was influenced by the great Sufi Perfect Master Ibn 'Arabi although he expressed at times criticism of the complicated nature of his teachings, preferring a simpler explanation. Al-Shushtari's true legacy lives on in the heart of men who still sing his poems and celebrate his memory. In the Delta of Egypt, followers of the Shadhiliyya Order still recite his zajal, while in Tunisia his words are sung to the tones of a musical instrument bearing his name, 'al-Sustariyya.' In Morocco his songs are a common denominator to several Sufi celebrations, and in Spain he is regarded as a trendsetter in Andalusian literature and is better known as 'The Juggler of Love.' Most of his poems are in the forms of qasidas, ghazals, qit'as, muwashasha, zajal: all here in the correct form & meaning.

Download or read book Mysticism and Philosophy in al Andalus written by Michael Ebstein and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muslim Spain gave rise to two unusual figures in the mystical tradition of Islam: Ibn Masarra (269/883-319/931) and Ibn al-ʿArabī (560/1165-638/1240). Representing, respectively, the beginning and the pinnacle of Islamic mysticism in al-Andalus, Ibn Masarra and Ibn al-ʿArabī embody in their writings a type of mystical discourse which is quite different from the Sufi discourse that evolved in the Islamic east during the 9th-12th centuries. In Mysticism and Philosophy in al-Andalus, Michael Ebstein points to the Ismāʿīlī tradition as one possible source which helped shape the distinct intellectual world from which both Ibn Masarra and Ibn al-ʿArabī derived. By analyzing their writings and the works of various Ismāʿīlī authors, Michael Ebstein unearths the many links that connect the thought of Ibn Masarra and Ibn al-ʿArabī to the Ismāʿīlī tradition.
Download or read book Sufi Narratives of Intimacy written by Sa'diyya Shaikh and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2012-03-05 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirteenth-century Sufi poet, mystic, and legal scholar Muhyi al-Din ibn al-'Arabi gave deep and sustained attention to gender as integral to questions of human existence and moral personhood. Reading his works through a critical feminist lens, Sa'diyya Shaikh opens fertile spaces in which new and creative encounters with gender justice in Islam can take place. Grounding her work in Islamic epistemology, Shaikh attends to the ways in which Sufi metaphysics and theology might allow for fundamental shifts in Islamic gender ethics and legal formulations, addressing wide-ranging contemporary challenges including questions of women's rights in marriage and divorce, the politics of veiling, and women's leadership of ritual prayer. Shaikh deftly deconstructs traditional binaries between the spiritual and the political, private conceptions of spiritual development and public notions of social justice, and the realms of inner refinement and those of communal virtue. Drawing on the treasured works of Sufism, Shaikh raises a number of critical questions about the nature of selfhood, subjectivity, spirituality, and society to contribute richly to the prospects of Islamic feminism as well as feminist ethics more broadly.
