Bahauddin, Jelalluddin Rumi's father, was a major force in the development of Islamic spirituality and deeply influential in his son's life. This first-ever substantial English version of selections from the Maarif, a wonderful but virtually unknown book by Bahauddin, features the delightful and passionate voice of Rumi's best-known translator, Coleman Barks, transforming the Persian translations of John Moyne into fresh spiritual literature.
