Ibn Khaldun (1332-1406) is generally regarded as the greatest intellectual ever to have appeared in the Arab world - a genius who ranks as one of the world's great minds. Yet the author of the Muqaddima, the most important study of history ever produced in the Islamic world, is not as well known as he should be, and his ideas are widely misunderstood. In this groundbreaking intellectual biography, Robert Irwin provides an engaging and authoritative account of Ibn Khaldun's extraordinary life, times, writings, and ideas.

“A must read for anyone who wants to learn more about the history of the Islamic world” (San Francisco Chronicle) We in the West share a common narrative of world history. But our story largely omits a whole civilization whose citizens shared an entirely different narrative for a thousand...

Reclaim Your Heart is not just a self-help book. It is a manual about the journey of the heart in and out of the ocean of this life. It is a book about how to keep your heart from sinking to the depths of that ocean, and what to do when it does. It is a book about redemption, about hope, about renewal. Every heart can heal, and each moment is created to bring us closer to that transformative return. Reclaim Your Heart is about finding that moment when everything stops and suddenly looks different. It is about finding your own awakening.

El Corán es el texto sagrado de la religión musulmana, también conocido como la Escritura de los musulmanes y, por ende, de quienes practican el islam. Este libro es la obra literaria más antigua conocida en árabe.

Il faudrait, et il est même impératif, que la majorité des êtres vivants sur cette terre sache que Dieu est en nous, que nous somme Dieu, que nous ne faisons qu'un. Cheikh al-Akbar Ibn 'Arabi évoque ainsi la notion ésotérique de l'unicité de l'être (wahda al-wujûd ) qui invite chacun d'entre nous à la quête spirituelle comme à la réalisation de soi, au développement personnel et à l'accomplissement du bonheur.

La alquimia en Al Ándalus fue una de las disciplinas más importantes del esplendor cultural islámico en España. Siglos de progreso en Al Ándalus que fueron tejidos con el hilo de oro de la alquimia y que cayeron en el olvido. La alquimia en Al Ándalus y su influencia en el arte y las ciencias era un capítulo de la historia que estaba aún por escribir. Desde la llegada de Abderrahmán I, el Inmigrado, a Al Ándalus en el año 756, hasta la caída del califato en el 1030, y tiempo después de los almorávides y almohades, los andalusíes se convirtieron en testigos de excepción de un arte que no se introduciría en Europa hasta el siglo XII.

The Convenient Terrorist is the definitive inside account of the capture, torture, and detention of Abu Zubaydah, the first “high-value target” captured by the CIA after 9/11. But was Abu Zubaydah, who is still being indefinitely held by the United States under shadowy circumstances, the blue-ribbon capture that the Bush White House claimed he was? 

Quelle histoire, celle d'Ibn Arabi, le plus grand des maîtres spirituels soufis ! Il a donné une dimension profonde à l'islam. Mais il fut aussi un grand voyageur, un poète inspiré et un amoureux.

Considered by Rumi to be "the master" of Sufi mystic poetry, Attar is best known for this epic poem, a magnificent allegorical tale about the soul's search for meaning. He recounts the perilous journey of the world's birds to the faraway peaks of Mount Qaf in search of the mysterious Simorgh, their king. Attar's beguiling anecdotes and humor intermingle the sublime with the mundane, the spiritual with the worldly, while his poem models the soul's escape from the mind's rational embrace.

Sometimes rumor, sometimes based on fact and often misunderstood, the tenets of Islamic law and dogma were not set in the religion's founding moments. They were developed, like in other world religions, over centuries by the clerical class of Muslim scholars. Misquoting Muhammad takes listeners back in time through Islamic civilization and traces how and why such controversies developed, offering an inside view into how key and controversial aspects of Islam took shape.

A pesar de ser enormemente atractivos como mero entretenimiento, los cuentos derviches están diseñados para llegar a lugares más profundos de la mente (y del corazón) que aquellos accesibles a la fábula o a los tradicionales cuentos folclóricos. Su ingenio, construcción y perspicacia no tienen parangón; y su función como elementos vivos de la enseñanza Sufi, bajo el nombre de cuentos enseñantes, es algo que verdaderamente se experimenta mediante las múltiples lecturas que merecen: no importa cuántas veces los leas, siempre encontrarás algo nuevo en ellos.
