The Diwan - Bughyat al-Murideen as-Saa'ireen wa Tuhfat as-Salikeen al-'Arifeen -The Desire of Journeying Murids and the Gift to Wayfaring GnosticsThe Diwan of the Shaykh and Gnostic of Allah Sayyidi Muhammad ibn al-Habib al-Amghari al-Idrisi al-Hasani, in this Arabic-English edition, contains his Wird and Qasidas. It is 21.6cm by 14cm (5.5 by 8.5 inches), 248 pages and in a sturdy casebound binding. The Diwan of Shaykh Muhammad ibn al-Habib has long been famous among the Sufis for its balance between poems expressing direct spiritual experience and those in instruction on travelling the path.This compact edition contains the Wird, Qasidas including one by Shaykh Ahmad al-Badawi and another on the Ninety-Nine Beautiful Names of Allah, the Salat al-Mashishiyya, and the Diwan of Shaykh al-Fayturi.Shaykh Muhammad ibn al-Habib, may Allah be pleased with him, was born circa 1290/1871 in Fez. He received a traditional education in fiqh and the sciences of Islam, Iman and Ihsan. He was Maliki in fiqh, Ash'ari in 'aqida and Darqawi-Shadhili in tariqa. Describing himself, he said:"Allah, may He be exalted said: 'As for the blessing of your Lord - declare it.' So let Muhammad ibn al-Habib, al-Amghari al-Hasani by lineage, dwelling in Fez, the poor slave of his Master, yet enriched by Him with other-than-Him, declare, in speaking of Allah's blessing, that idhn (authorisation) has come to him from Allah and the Messenger of Allah and all the awliya' of Allah, and that Allah has singled him out with sciences and secrets which only the unique man of Muhammad possesses."He died, may Allah have mercy on him, in 1391/1972 while on the way to Hajj, and is buried in his zawiya in Meknes.

"The prayer has an immense light by which the hearts of those who pray shine, and is only obtained by those who have inner humility."When you go to the prayer, you should empty your heart of this world and what it contains and occupy yourself with watchfulness of our Master for whose sake you pray."This text is widely regarded as the basic entry point to Maliki fiqh.Its author was 'Abd ar-Rahman al-Akhdari (920/1514 - 953/1546) from Algeria.

The tafs¿r of al-Qur¿ub¿ is perhaps one of the most compendious of them all and is certainly among the most famous. As its title, al-J¿mi' li A¿k¿m al-Qur'¿n - The General Judgments of the Qur'an, suggests, its main focus is on the rulings and judgments to be found in the Qur'¿n. However, in the course of doing that, al-Qur¿ub¿ examines all the relevant sciences necessary, such as the ¿ad¿th pertaining to the ¿yahs, events in the s¿rah, what the Companions, their Followers and other noted people of knowledge said about the ¿yahs, essential aspects of Arabic etymology, syntax and usage, copiously illustrated by examples, and much more.In this introduction, the author lays out some of the key themes of the Qur'an: Its virtues and the reciter's; how to recite it; cautioning against showing off; what the one who knows the Qur'an must do and not neglect to do; learning its syntax; the excellence of tafs¿r; the excellence of the bearer of the Qur'an; the respect and esteem mandatory for the Qur'an; threats against engaging in tafs¿r by means of opinion (ra'y); the Book being explained by the Sunnah; how to learn and understand the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Prophet s; that it used to be easier to act by it than to memorise it; the words of the Prophet s; "The Qur'an was revealed in seven äruf (dialects/modes)"; the seven readings; the collection of the Qur'an; the memorisation of the Qur'an by the Companions at the time of the Prophet s; the order of the s¿rahs and ¿yahs of the Qur'an; the meaning of the words s¿rah, ¿yah, kalimah (word) and ¿arf (letter); non-Arabic words in the Qur'an; the inimitability of the Qur'an; hadiths forged about the excellence of the s¿rahs of the Qur'an; refutation of those who attack the Qur'an; the Seeking Refuge with Allah from Shay¿¿n and the Basmalah.Diwan Press will be publishing the entire tafs¿r in 30 volumes along with the Introduction.Ab¿ Müammad ibn A¿mad ibn Ab¿ Bakr ibn Far¿ al-An¿¿r¿ al-Khazraj¿ al-Andalus¿ al-Qur¿ub¿ (610-11 AH/1214 CE - 671 AH/1273 CE) was born in Cordoba in Spain, but moved in 1236 to Cairo in Egypt, where he lived until his death. He was M¿lik¿ in fiqh, and although he composed other works, he is most famous for this tafs¿r.Aisha Bewley is the translator of a large number of classical works of Islam and Sufism, often in collaboration with Abdalhaqq Bewley, notably The Noble Qur'an - a New Rendering of Its Meanings in English; Muhammad, Messenger of Allah - the translation of Q¿¿¿ 'Iy¿¿'s ash-Shif¿'; the Muwä¿a' of Imam M¿lik ibn Anas; and Imam an-Nawaw¿'s Riy¿¿ ä-¿¿li¿¿n.

The tafsir of al-Qur¿ubi is perhaps one of the most compendious of them all and is certainly among the most famous. As its title, al-Jami' li A¿kam al-Qur'an - The General Judgments of the Qur'an, suggests, its main focus is on the rulings and judgments to be found in the Qur'an. However, in the course of doing that, al-Qur¿ubi examines all the relevant sciences necessary, such as the ¿adith pertaining to the ayahs, events in the sirah, what the Companions, their Followers and other noted people of knowledge said about the ayahs, essential aspects of Arabic etymology, syntax and usage, copiously illustrated by examples, and much more.In this introduction, the author lays out some of the key themes of the Qur'an: Its virtues and the reciter's; how to recite it; cautioning against showing off; what the one who knows the Qur'an must do and not neglect to do; learning its syntax; the excellence of tafsir; the excellence of the bearer of the Qur'an; the respect and esteem mandatory for the Qur'an; threats against engaging in tafsir by means of opinion (ra'y); the Book being explained by the Sunnah; how to learn and understand the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Prophet s; that it used to be easier to act by it than to memorise it; the words of the Prophet s; "The Qur'an was revealed in seven äruf (dialects/modes)"; the seven readings; the collection of the Qur'an; the memorisation of the Qur'an by the Companions at the time of the Prophet s; the order of the surahs and ayahs of the Qur'an; the meaning of the words surah, ayah, kalimah (word) and ¿arf (letter); non-Arabic words in the Qur'an; the inimitability of the Qur'an; hadiths forged about the excellence of the surahs of the Qur'an; refutation of those who attack the Qur'an; the Seeking Refuge with Allah from Shay¿an and the Basmalah.Diwan Press will be publishing the entire tafsir in 30 volumes along with the Introduction.Abu Müammad ibn A¿mad ibn Abi Bakr ibn Far¿ al-An¿ari al-Khazraji al-Andalusi al-Qur¿ubi (610-11 AH/1214 CE - 671 AH/1273 CE) was born in Cordoba in Spain, but moved in 1236 to Cairo in Egypt, where he lived until his death.
