Here is a selection of ruba'is, a ghazal, but mainly of his dohas, a rhymed couplet that is a wise, complete thought in itself.

His Divan was popular during his lifetime and consisted of ghazals, qasidas and about ruba'is and qit'as. Most of his poems are Sufi in content. FAIZI (1547-1595) held the honorary title Malek ol-shoara (king of poets). This Sufi poet-laureate of Akbar assisted him in his efforts at reform, which were aimed at reconciling Indians of different faiths. His ghazals show the influence of Hafiz and Jami and Fighani and are early examples of the 'Indian Style'. DARD (1720-1784) is considered one of the three great poets of the Delhi school of classical Urdu poetry. He is firstly a Sufi poet who saw the physical world as a veil of the Divine Reality and this world a pathway. ZAFAR (1775-1862) was the last of the Mughal emperors in India, as well as the last ruler of the Timurid Dynasty. Zafar was a much loved Urdu poet and Sufi who often held poetry readings at his court that the poets Zauq, Ghalib, Momin, Shefta and Dagh attended.

THE LIBRARY OF GREAT SUFI POETS Book Eight Majnun, Rab'ia al-Adawiyya, Mahsati Ganjavi, Hasan Dehlavi & Aatish Translation & Introduction Paul Smith MAJNUN was a youth, a famous Bedouin poet (immortalised by Nizami) in the seventh century of the Bani Amir tribe in the Najd desert in Arabia. He fell in love with Layla from the same tribe whom he was denied. Most of his recorded poetry was composed before his descent into love-madness (mast) then through a Perfect Master... his spiritual unification with his beloved. RABI'A (717-801). Throughout her life, her Love of God, poverty and self-denial did not waver. More interesting than her absolute asceticism is the actual concept of Divine Love that Rabi'a introduced. She was the first to introduce the idea that God should be loved for God's own sake. She is widely considered to be the most important of the early Sufi poets. MAHSATI (1098-1185) lived in Ganjeh and was a court, dervish (Sufi) and ribald poet. She knew Nizami and Khayyam and composed mainly in the ruba'i form and helped to revolutionize it. HASAN DEHLAVI (1253-1328) was a close friend of the great Amir Khusrau and also achieved greatness as a poet and Sufi. He composed over 800 ghazals; influenced by Sadi he was called the 'Sadi of Hindustan'. AATISH (1777-1847). Khwaja Haidar Ali... pen-name Aatish ('fire') was born in Faizabad. His ancestors had been dervishes and religious men. His words are simple and carefully chosen. His ghazals are on the traditional themes of human and divine love. Correct rhymes are kept in all poems. Biographies & Bibliographies. Introduction on Sufi Poetry and its Forms. 6" x 9" 462 pages. Paul Smith (b. 1945) is a poet, author and translator of many books of Sufi poets of the Persian, Arabic, Urdu, Turkish and other languages... including Hafiz, Sadi, Nizami, Rumi, 'Attar, Rab'ia, Mahsati, Sana'i, Obeyd Zakani, Nesimi, Kabir, Anvari, Ansari, Jami, Khayyam, Rudaki, Yunus Emre, Baba Farid, Mu'in, Lalla Ded, Mahsati, Iqbal, Rahman Baba and many others and his own poetry, fiction, plays, biographies, children's books, 12 screenplays. www.newhumanitybooks.com

NINE GREAT URDU SUFI POETSQutub Shah, Dard, Nazir, Mir, Aatish, Zauq, Zafar, Ghalib & Hali.Translation & Introduction Paul SmithSome of the greatest and most memorable spiritual poems of all time have been composed in the Urdu language and are contained in this anthology. CONTENTS: The Urdu Language; Urdu Poetry; The Ghazal in Urdu Poetry; The Ruba'i in Urdu Poetry; The Masnavi and other forms in Urdu Poetry; Sufis & Dervishes: Their Art & Use of Poetry. THE POETS... Qutub Shah (1565-1611) was the fifth sultan of the Qutub Shahi dynasty of Golconda in South India. He founded the city of Hyderabad and was a scholar of Arabic and Persian. He wrote poetry in Urdu and Persian. He had the distinction of being the first Urdu poet. He was also a mystic or Sufi poet and a devout Shiite Muslim. Dard (1720-1784) is considered one of the three great poets of the Delhi school of classical Urdu poetry. He is firstly a Sufi poet who saw the physical world as a veil of the Divine Reality and this world a pathway. Nazir (1735-1830) No other Urdu poet used as many words as Nazir. He was influenced by Amir Khusrau, Sadi, Rumi and like many other Urdu poets especially Hafiz whom he often quotes. He eventually renounced all wealth for a life of poverty. He was said to have been a great musician. It is also said that he became God-realized. Mir (1723-1810) practiced the Malamati or 'Blameworthy' aspect of Sufism. Using this way one ascribes to oneself an unconventional aspect of a person or society then plays out its results either in action or in poetry. He composed mainly ghazals and an autobiography. Aatish (1777-1847) was born in Faizabad. Some critics rank him beside Mir and Ghalib. His ghazals are mainly Sufi in flavour on the traditional themes of human and divine love. He went blind towards the end of his life. Zafar (1775-1862) the last of the Mughal emperors in India,, was a noted Urdu poet and Sufi who often held poetry readings at his court. He was especially influenced by the poet Zauq. He wrote a large number of Urdu ghazals and other forms of poetry. Zauq (1788-1855) was a religious man and in his ghazals he often dealt with mystical and ethical themes. Most of his poetical output was lost during the mutiny of 1857. Ghalib, (1797-1869). His Urdu Divan of this now famous poet contains 263 ghazals and ruba'is, masnavis, qasidas and qit'as. There have been many movies based on his life made in India and Pakistan where his popularity has never flagged. Hali 1837-1914) was poet, critic, teacher, reformer and prose-writer. He also wrote biographies of Ghalib and Sadi of Shiraz. The correct rhyme-structure & meaning has been obtained in all of these hundreds of beautiful, inspiring, loving, honest, mystical poems. Large Format Paperback 7" x 10" Pages 821.Paul Smith(b. 1945) is a poet, author and translator of many books of Sufi poets of Persian, Arabic, Urdu, Turkish and other languages including Hafez, Sadi, Nizami, Rumi, 'Attar, Sana'i, Jahan Khatun, Obeyd Zakani, Mu'in ud-din Chishti, Amir Khusrau, Nesimi, Kabir, Anvari, Ansari, Jami, Khayyam, Hallaj, Rudaki, Yunus Emre Ghalib, Iqbal, Makhfi, Nazir, Bulleh Shah, Baba Farid, Lalla Ded, Abu Sa'id, Ibn al-Farid, Abu Nuwas, Seemab, Jigar, Qutub Shah and many others, as well as his own poetry, fiction, plays, biographies, kids books and a dozen screenplays.www.newhumanitybooks.com

The subject of this two-volume publication is an inventory of manuscripts in the book treasury of the Topkapı Palace in Istanbul, commissioned by the Ottoman sultan Bayezid II from his royal librarian ʿAtufi in the year 908 (1502–3) and transcribed in a clean copy in 909 (1503–4). This unicum inventory preserved in the Oriental Collection of the Library of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (Magyar Tudományos Akadémia Könyvtára Keleti Gyűjtemény, MS Török F. 59) records over 5,000 volumes, and more than 7,000 titles, on virtually every branch of human erudition at the time. The Ottoman palace library housed an unmatched encyclopedic collection of learning and literature; hence, the publication of this unique inventory opens a larger conversation about Ottoman and Islamic intellectual/cultural history. The very creation of such a systematically ordered inventory of books raises broad questions about knowledge production and practices of collecting, readership, librarianship, and the arts of the book at the dawn of the sixteenth century. The first volume contains twenty-eight interpretative essays on this fascinating document, authored by a team of scholars from diverse disciplines, including Islamic and Ottoman history, history of science, arts of the book and codicology, agriculture, medicine, astrology, astronomy, occultism, mathematics, philosophy, theology, law, mysticism, political thought, ethics, literature (Arabic, Persian, Turkish/Turkic), philology, and epistolary. Following the first three essays by the editors on implications of the library inventory as a whole, the other essays focus on particular fields of knowledge under which books are catalogued in MS Török F. 59, each accompanied by annotated lists of entries. The second volume presents a transliteration of the Arabic manuscript, which also features an Ottoman Turkish preface on method, together with a reduced-scale facsimile.

The Book in the Islamic World brings together serious studies on the book as an intellectual entity and as a vehicle of cultural development. Written by a group of distinguished scholars, it examines and reflects upon this unique tool of communication not as a physical artifact but as a manifestation of the aspirations, values, and wisdom of Arabs and Muslims in general. The Islamic system of book production differed from that of the West. This volume shows the peculiarities of book making and the intellectual principles that governed a book's inner structure, mysteries, and impact on culture. Investigated and explained are the issues involved in printing; the compilation of the Koran, the most important book in Islam; attitudes toward books; the oral versus the written tradition; metaphors of the book in literature; biographical dictionaries, an important genre of Islamic books; the grammatical tradition; women's contribution to calligraphy; scientific manuscripts; the transition from scribal to print culture; publishing in the modern Arab World; and the new electronic media, a non-book vehicle of communication, and its impact on education.
