SynopsisWinner of the 2021 Sheikh Hamad Award for Translation and International Understanding (category: translation from Arabic into English) This is an unabridged, annotated, translation of the great Damascene savant and saint Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya's (d. 751/1350) Madarij al-Salikin . Conceived as a critical commentary on an earlier Sufi classic by the great Hanbalite scholar Abu Ismail of Herat, Madarij aims to rejuvenate Sufism's Quranic foundations. The original work was a key text for the Sufi initiates, composed in terse, rhyming prose as a master's instruction to the aspiring seeker on the path to God, in a journey of a hundred stations whose ultimate purpose was to be lost to one's self ( fana ) and subsist ( baqa ) in God. The translator, Ovamir (Uwaymir) Anjum, provides an extensive introduction and annotation to this English-Arabic face-to-face presentation of this masterpiece of Islamic psychology., This is an unabridged, annotated, English-Arabic face-to-face translation of the great Damascene savant and saint Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya's (d. 751/1350) masterpiece, Madarij al-Salikin by Ovamir Anjum. This work on Islamic psychology aimed to rejuvenate Sufism's Quranic foundations.
