The Moroccan Sufi Ibn 'Ajiba and His Mi'raj

Including his glossary of the technical terms of Sufism
Jean Louis Michon, Translated by David Strait

Fons Vitae (Forthcoming ) ISBN 1887752242 paper TBA

This volume commences with extracts from the autobiography of Ibn 'Ajiba (1749-1809), which includes a description of how the great master Shaikh ad-Darqawi placed him under the spiritual guidance of one of his own masterful disciples. Jean Louis Michon has also translated here Ibn 'Ajiba's Mi'raj, as well as extracts from other works such as his commentaries on the Qu'ran and the Hikam of Ibn Ata'allah al Iskandari. This volume is an important reference work. We are also treated to Ibn 'Ajiba's own glossary of more than 146 technical terms, a compendium of other glossaries, indices, and notes.
