The Chapters of Mary and Ta Ha: From the Immense Ocean (Al-Bahr Al-Madid Fi Tafsir Al-Qur'an Al-Majid)

Bag om The Chapters of Mary and Ta Ha: From the Immense Ocean (Al-Bahr Al-Madid Fi Tafsir Al-Qur'an Al-Majid)

The Chapters of Mary and Ta Ha center on the key figures of Islam's two sister monotheisms, Mary, mother of Christ, and Moses. Ibn 'Ajiba's commentaries on these two surahs give reader access not only to the traditional Islamic view of these prophetic figures, but also on metaphors and symbols to be found in their stories that can of use to anyone following an inner path to God. The Chapter of Mary, in particular, gives readers access to the story of Christ through the perspective of the woman who was chosen to bear him. The Immense Ocean from which this is an excerpt, is a prime example of writing from the North African Sufic tradition. Al-Bahr al-Madid, from which this translation is an excerpt, is the only traditional Quranic commentary in existence which gives both exoteric exegesis and mystical "spiritual allusion" for each verse of the Sacred Book. Since the completion of its publication in 2002, the Arabic version of al-Bahr al-Madid, which existed only in manuscript form before a small excerpt was printed in the 1950s, has sold out three editions. This is a testimony both to its popularity and to a revival of interest in Sufic thought throughout the Muslim world.
