Back Cover Description
His Eminence Maulana Wahid Bakhsh Rabbani
one of the Khalifahs (deputy) of Hazrat Syed Muhammad
Zauqi, Shah is one of the eminent Sufi Saints of this century.
He spent 12 years in the company of his Sheikh and has been
a practicing Sufi for the last 50 years. Like his Sheikh,
he has written several books on Sufism and translated some
important Sufi texts from Persian to Urdu. His articles and
essays have also appeared in the Sufi Path book series.
A truly inspirational book which one should not miss to read
in the present-day lop-sided and over-materialistic world,
where man has deplorably failed to strike a balance between
his physical and spiritual life resulting in untold misery
restlessness, frustration, worries, woes, conflicts and confrontations
which have torn the world asunder.
The speciality of this wonderfully well-structured and comprehensive
manual on Sufism is that it not only clarifies the common
misconceptions about Sufism today:
- showing the source of Sufism to be the Holy Qur'an and
the Noble Prophet (S A W ) himself
- showing how Science and Sufism are but struggling for
the some goal
- that Sufism is the latest. earliest. simplest. quickest,
and most successful of all mystical systems in the world
- that Islamic Sufism advocates full participation in worldly
affairs unlike other mystical disciplines which are characterised
by world renunciation and asceticism perhaps most importantly.
This book will inspire the sincere seekers of God to aspire
for the highest goal that is
GOD Himself, attracted to Him, and journeying to Him, not
only in life but in the grave, in paradise, and till
eternity.
