Abu Said Abi'l-Khair and His Rubaiyat.
Abu Said Abi'l-Khair (967-1049 AD) was a seminal figure in the history
of sufism. His rubaiyat, or four line verses containing a sustained
thought, are still revered today and are regarded as part of the sacred
literature of the East. All of the 434 verses are here collected together
under headings such as Discipline, Prayer, Praise and Adoration,
Divine Revelation, Love etc. The verses are translated from the
original Persian into English with an eye to spiritual veracity by Dr
Sharib, whose own mastery of sufism gave him a brilliant insight into
the eminent saint's inner meanings. He includes an enlightening
introduction to Abu Said Abi'l Khair's life and personality.
235 pages, perfect bound paperback., 8 b&w full page illustrations by Jamiluddin
Morris. Preface, appendix and glossary. Published in 1992 in the
UK.

Hafiz and His Rubaiyat
Hafiz of Shiraz (1342-1388 AD) the preeminent mystic poet of Persia
(Iran) is best known for his Diwan but he also composed 76 rubaiyat
which are as exquisite as his longer, better known verse. They are

English. Some verses are also reproduced in the original Persian
script. Anyone familiar with Middle Eastern literature will require no
introduction to his greatness any more than the average English
reader would require an introduction to Shakespeare. However Dr
Sharib includes a brief survey of his life and personality which
highlights his mystical stature for his is a spirit that truly still walks
abroad.
Perfect bound paperback , 65 pages, full page b&w original illustrations by
Jamiluddin Morris and Faiz Ahmed Ferguson, photographs, glossary. Published
