Quran (17:81) and Abd ar-Rahman al Majdhub: On Annihilation of the Soul
________________________________________________
And say: 'The Real has come and the unreal has vanished away; surely the unreal is ever certain to vanish.'
(Quran, 17:81)
My sight has disappeared into His sight,
and it is annihilated to every vanishing thing.
I realised that other-than-Him does not exist,
And departed in delight immediately.
(Abd ar-Rahman al-Majdhub)

Description:
This precious translation of selections from the letters of Shaikh ad-Darqawi, the founder of a major branch of the Shadhiliyyah Order in North Africa in the 13th/19th century, belongs to a class of Sufi literature that has not as yet received enough attention outside of the Islamic world.
