This is the first English translation of Miftah al-falah, a
thirteenth century Sufi text, written by Ibn Ata Allah, one of the
great masters of the Shadhili Sufi order. It is considered to be
one of his most important works because it sets out the principles
of actual Sufi mystical practices, shedding light on the sacred
invocations, and associated practices, such as the spiritual
retreat. Written in a clear, lucid style, it offers a glimpse into
the Sufi world of the 7th Islamic century and allows us to see
almost at first hand how the novice was guided by the Sufi Shaykh
and, above all, the purpose and preparation involved in engaging in
the invocation, dhikhru'llah. Ibn Ata' Allah sets out to define it,
to explain its nature and power, to show its results and to prove
that it is part of the Prophet's Sunna, or practice. The author
goes to great lengths to point out many Qur'anic verses where
dhikru'llah is mentioned and cites many noted authorities.
