It is a complete commentary on the Qur?an, commenting on every chapter but not on every verse. A Sufi Commentary on the Qur?an is the first translation into English of this seminal work. Though little is known about the life of Abd alRazzaq alKashani (d. between 132935), it is accepted that he studied under Mu?ayyid alDin alJandi, who himself had studied with Sadr alDin Qunawi, the stepson of Ibn Arabi and leading exponent of Akbarian doctrine. Despite the paucity of information on his life, Kashani is recognised for the significant contribution he made to the school of Ibn Arabi; his influence and legacy lie in his systemisation of the ideas and thoughts of Ibn Arabi. The central theme of Kashani?s commentary on the Qur?an is gnosis or direct experiential knowledge of God: the seeker of the Divine is to engage in dedicated spiritual exertion in conformity with the Sacred Law until the heart becomes illuminated. The Ta?wilat alQur?an has been translated in two volumes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Islamic Texts Society","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45902101774534,"sku":"DADAX1911141449","price":45.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9389\/1014\/files\/81ASp6YpQVL.jpg?v=1780337404","url":"https:\/\/ergodemedia.com\/products\/a-sufi-commentary-on-the-quran-tawilat-alquran-1","provider":"Ergodemedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
