The Mystery of Prayer: The Ascension of the Wayfarers and the Prayer of the Gnostics

Description

Author: Ayatollah Khomeini

Translator: Sayyid Amjad Hussain Shah Naqavi

Publisher: Brill

This book will shake you to the core. Even in translation, Ayatollah Khomeini’s prose is breathtakingly beautiful. Most people don’t realize that Khomeini spent a lifetime immersed in the mystical tradition of Islam. His ruminations and reflections on prayer are extremely insightful, and one could spend years going through the jewels in this book. I also really enjoyed the introduction and annotations by Sayyid Naqavi, which provided excellent context before moving on to the main text.
