 A Sufi Martyr The Apologia Of Ain Al Qudat Al Hamadhani

In a futile attempt to overturn his sentence, a prominent Sufi mystic penned this volume while imprisoned in Baghdad, awaiting execution; he was put to death in AD 1311 at the age of 33. 

This apologia is a poignant piece written in the most exquisite Arabic and translated with the competence and elegance for which A J Arberry has become famous.
