Book Synopsis
This is the first major study in a Western language of Rashid al-Din Maybudi''s Persian commentary on the Qur''an Kashf al-asrar wa ''uddat al-abrar (Unveiling of Mysteries and Provision of the Righteous). Annabel Keeler explores the interplay between scriptural exegesis and mystical doctrine in a twelfth-century Sufi commentary on the Qur''an. Previously little-known outside the Persian-speaking world, it is increasingly recognized as a key work in the development of Sufi Qur''anic interpretation. This volume provides invaluable background for anyone wanting to gain a deeper understanding of Persian mystical poetry and prose, and other major works of Sufi literature.
