Description
The Dīwān “collected poems” of Ibn al-Fāriḍ, ‘Umar ibn ‘Alī (1181 or 2-1235), the Egyptian born Sufi and mystic poet. His father came to Egypt from Hama, Syria. His theological and sufi (mystical) views were, and still are, very controversial. But to the Sufis, he still is “Sulṭān al-’āshiqīn” (Sultan of them who had fallen in love, i.e. love of God). A very scarce edition.
Creator
Ibn al-Fāriḍ, ʻUmar ibn ʻAlī, 1181 or 2-1235.
