"Almost a prerequisite for any serious study of Sufism in European
languages": this was the verdict of Seyyed Hossein Nasr in his
review of the first edition of "A Sufi Saint of the Twentieth
Century: Shaikh Ahmad al-Alawi his Spiritual Heritage and
Legacy".---In this work, the author, Dr Martin Lings, presents a
vivid picture of the unforgettable figure of the Algerian Shaykh
Ahmad al-Alawi through a short biography by his French doctor and
the translation of the Shaykh al-Alawi's own autobiography. These
are followed by expositions of the Shaykh al-Alawi's teachings
which are based on pure metaphysics and gnosis. Finally, Dr Martin
Lings translates selections from Shaykh al-Alawi's aphorisms and
mystical poetry. The whole work immerses the reader in the world of
North African Sufism both as an intellectual tradition and a living
reality.
