Diwan Al Hallaj

Louis Massignon

4.4/5 ( ratings)

Mansur al-Hallaj, died 0919, was born near Shiraz on 0858, and tortured and executed in Baghdad for declaring: "I am the Truth ." Much has been written about his famous statement, but few of his powerful, often mysteries and always deeply conscious and spiritual poems in Arabic have been translated before from his Divan into English, and in the poetic form in which they were composed. Now here they are! Written in rhymed Arabic prose... it sets forth a doctrine of saintship-a doctrine founded on personal experience and clothed in the form of a subtle yet passionate dialectic.' This is a free-form poetic translation that captures the beauty and meaning and the mystery and the profundity of this controversial classic of Sufism.
