Description :

At its core, this book is a collection of spiritual experiences of one of Islam’s greatest teachers, who led an exemplary life of piety and servanthood. Shaykh ʿAbd al-Qadir al-Jilani, may Allah be pleased with him, stated that these profound unveilings are among the many blessings from Allah that flowed to him throughout the day and night. He described these spiritual gifts as Futuh al-Ghayb (Revelations of the Unseen). This work serves as both a conceptual and practical guide for the seeker of Allah.

While other editions of this book follow the original manuscript’s chronological flow, this unique edition organises Shaykh ʿAbd al-Qadir’s, may Allah be pleased with him, profound insights into thematic chapters that highlight the fundamental traits and attributes of Islamic spirituality, known as tasawwuf [Sufism]. This structure offers a transformative way to engage with this seminal work, making the Shaykh’s timeless wisdom more accessible than ever before.

Sultan al-Awliya; Shaykh 'Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani, may Allah sanctify his secret, born near the Caspian Sea, in a town called Jilan, is one of the most venerated figures in tasawwuf. The venerable Ghawth 'Abd al-Qadir al-Jilani, may Allah sanctify his secret, is noted for his extraordinary spiritual experiences and exploits, as well as his memorable sayings and wise teachings. It is rightly said of him that 'he was born in love, grew in perfection, and met his Lord in the perfection of love.

The shaykh passed on to the Realm of Divine Beauty in 561_A.H /1166 _C.E and his mausoleum in Baghdad attracts millions of pilgrims from throughout the globe.
