Fifteen Letters (Khamsata 'Ashara Maktuban)

Shaikh Ê¿Abd al-QÄdir al-JilÄnÄ« is arguably the greatest figure in the history of Sufism. His teachings have attracted millions to Islam and helped countless Muslims understand the spiritual journey that this great religion represents.

The current work consists of fifteen short letters in which the Shaikh describes spiritual experiences and knowledge that are attained through striving against oneâ€™s base desires and committed devotion to Allah. They are written in a highly mystical language, using a peculiar style whereby each sentence or group of sentences is followed by a related Qurâ€™anic text. In effect, the letters represent a Sufi experiential interpretation of the quoted Qurâ€™anic verses. While small in size, this exceptionally charming and poetically beautiful work is immensely profound.
