A superbly produced edition of one of the most popular pieces of devotional poetry in the Islamic world. Each verse of the Burdah is translated on a single page along with a couplet or stanza of poetry (culled from various sources) relating to the verse somehow. The Arabic calligraphy, illumination, and general design evoke a very Ottoman Turkish aesthetic. Kudos to Abdal Hakim Murad (Timothy J Winter) for putting this edition together. The Mantle Adorned may serve, it is hoped, as an aid to devotion. In the traditional manner, each line, and the nazira lines which follow, should be the subject of an hour’s quite meditation. Blessing the Prophet, and indeed all of the prophets and saints, brings a blessing in to our lives, and stillness to the heart ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
A new English translation of the celebrated Poem of the Cloak (Qasidat al-Burda) by Imam Busiri (may Allah be pleased with him) is now available. With calligraphy by Betul Krkan and illumination by Ersan Percem, the beautiful production of this edition reflects the esteem in which the poem is held, as well of course as its high purpose, the remembrance and honouring of God's Beloved and Final Messenger, Muhammad, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him.Sheikh Abdal Hakim's translation renders the poem in beautiful and moving English in a parallel text alongside the original Arabic. In addition, each verse is followed by lines from other poets - classical and modern, and from many parts of the world - echoing and amplifying its theme, encouraging the reader to reflect on its meanings more fully."
