Mohammed Rustom presents nearly eight hundred passages in translation (most of which appear here for the first time in English) from ''Ayn al-Quat''s Arabic and Persian writings alongside a step-by-step commentary that outlines every major theme that guides his worldview. Contextualizing ''Ayn al-Quat''s life, influence, and self-perception as a teacher and scholar extraordinaire, the book then carefully unpacks his highly original teachings on God, cosmology, human agency, spiritual practice, imagination, death, knowledge, scripture, beauty, and love.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57484143591797,"sku":"9781438494289","price":27.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781438494289.jpg?v=1786266181","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/inrushes-of-the-heart","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
