Sayyid Amjad Hussain Shah Naqavi's introduction and annotated
scholarly translation of Ayatollah Khomeini's The Mystery of Prayer
brings to light a rarely studied dimension of an author better
known for his revolutionary politics. Writing forty years before
the Islamic revolution, Khomeini shows a formidable level of
insight into the spiritual aspects of Islamic prayer. Through
discussions on topics such as spiritual purity, the presence of the
heart before God, and the stations of the spiritual wayfarer,
Khomeini elucidates upon the nature of reality as the countenance
of the divine. Drawing upon scriptural sources and the Shi'ah
intellectual and mystical tradition, the subtlety of the work has
led to it being appreciated as one of Khomeini's most original
works in the field of gnosis.
