Dr Martin Lings (1909-2005) formerly Keeper of Oriental Manuscripts at the British Library, is a world-renowned expert in Islamic manuscripts and author of the best-selling 'Muhammad: His Life Based on the Earliest Sources'. In addition, his works on Islamic mysticism: 'Sufi Poems', 'What is Sufism?', 'A Sufi Saint of the Twentieth Century' and 'The Book of Certainty', have made him one of the foremost authorities in the field. Other titles by Martin Lings include works on Shakespeare, on symbolism, and two collections of poetry.
This translation is a short and accessible introduction to the Qur'an, written by a world-renowned scholar and Sufi master. A work in progress at the time of the author's death, this publication features selected verses that have been culled from previously unpublished writings. The translation emphasizes the spirituality and universal message at the heart of the Qur'an, and on facing pages the original Arabic text is presented, giving readers the opportunity to read the translation while fully viewing the original sacred text.
