Darryl and the Mountain
|
|
Darryl the deer embarks on a perilous mountain journey and learns about respect and positivity in this entertaining and educational tale. When Darryl?s mother asks him to find a special medicinal plant thought to grow on the other side of the mountains, he readily agrees, eager to help his family. Freddy, an overly competitive and adventurous fox, decides to tag along and attempts to turn every aspect of the trip into a chance to prove his courage, but Darryl is too smart to fall for his selfish traps and carelessness. By acknowledging the value of feedback, the wisdom of elders, and the benefit of a positive outlook, Darryl is able to avoid unpleasantness with the scary and unfriendly animals he meets and return home safely. Freddy, on the other hand, faces serious obstacles due to his arrogant behavior and finds his homecoming tainted by remorse and a hurt sense of pride.

Spiritual Gems
The Mystical Qur'an Commentary
Ascribed to Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq(d. 148/765)
Translated and Annotated byFarhana Mayer
This corpus of exegetical comments constitutes arguably the earliest extant
mystical commentary on the Qur'an. It was preserved and transmitted by the
Sufis of the early centuries of Islam, and is found in the fourth/tenth through
fifth/eleventh century compendium compiled by al-SulamÏ (d. 412/1021), in
which Jaʿfar al-Sadiq is one of the most frequently cited authorities.
Spiritual Gems is the first ever English of this important corpus from al-ߥdiq.
Complete with analytical introduction and scholarly notes, the book contains a
detailed exposition of the methods and levels of scriptural interpretation used
in this commentary and of the cognate ontological continuity between the lev-
els of the human microcosm.
The spirituality of this text is a deeply mystical encounter with the truths enun-
ciated by philosophy and religion. In addition to surmounting temporal differ-
ences, the inner landscape of the commentary rises above formal differences; by
virtue of its universal message, it is as relevant today as it was in earlier times. Our Price: $22.95

The Book of Ascension
To the Essential Truths of Sufism
Miʿrāj al-tashawwuf ilā ḥaqāʾiq al-taṣawwuf
A Lexicon of Sufic Terminology
by Aḥmad ibnʿAjība
Translated and Annotated by
Mohamed Fouad Aresmouk &
Michael Abdurrahman Fitzgerald
The Book of Ascension to the Essential Truths of Sufism is a lexicon of Sufic terminology compiled by the Moroccan scholar and mystic, Aḥmad ibn 'Ajība. It was first begun around the time he entered the Darqawī Order at the hand of its founder, in 1208/1793, and then re-written twelve to thirteen years later after he himself had travelled the Path and became one of its teachers.
The final work, dated 1220/1806 contains 143 Sufic terms for which Ibn 'Ajība gives succinct but profound definitions, usually including what the term means for someone at the beginning, middle, and end of the spiritual journey.
The main text is enriched by twenty more passages from other works by the same author as well as by the complete text of al-Mirʿāj in vowelled Arabic text, extensive notes, and indices of persons, terms, Quranic verses, and ḥadīth mentioned. Our Price: $21.99
