About The Book

al-Nur wa al-Baha is one of the foundational short Sufi treatises by Abu al-Husayn al-Nuri — a companion of al-Junayd al-Baghdadi and one of the central figures of the early Baghdad school of Sufism. Composed in the lyrical-mystical prose register characteristic of the early period, the work meditates on the relation between divine light (al-nur) and divine beauty (al-baha) in the spiritual life of the wayfarer — themes that became foundational for the entire subsequent Sufi tradition.

About The Author

His ecstatic utterances and intense devotional state became foundational reference points for the subsequent Sufi tradition. The Sufi historian al-Qushayri devotes substantial attention to him in his Risala.

About the author

Abu al-Husayn al-Nuri: Abu al-Husayn Ahmad b. Muhammad al-Nuri (d. 295 AH / 908 CE) rahimahullah was one of the central figures of the early Baghdad school of Sufism, which produced the foundational masters of the classical Sufi tradition. He was a disciple of al-Saqati and a close companion of al-Junayd al-Baghdadi, the foremost Sufi master of the Baghdad school. His ecstatic utterances and intense devotional state - his wajd and shatahat - became foundational reference points for the subsequent Sufi tradition in its understanding of the spiritual states and their proper place in the path. Imam al-Qushayri devotes substantial attention to him in his Risala, one of the primary classical anthologies of the early Sufi masters. His short treatise al-Nur wa al-Baha contemplates the relationship between the divine light and divine radiance in the spiritual life of the seeker, themes that became foundational to the entire subsequent Sufi heritage.
