About the author

Abu al-Qasim al-Qushayri: Imam Abu al-Qasim Abd al-Karim ibn Hawazin al-Qushayri rahimahullah (376-465 AH / 986-1072 CE) was one of the foremost scholars of Khurasan and a towering figure in classical Sunni Islamic learning. He was simultaneously a Shafii jurist, an Ashari theologian, and a Sufi master - embodying the integrated traditional Sunni synthesis of law, theology, and spirituality. His most celebrated work, al-Risala al-Qushayriyya, remains the foundational systematic exposition of Sufi terminology, spiritual stations (maqamat), and master-biographies in the Sunni tradition. Alongside the Risala, he authored Adab al-Sufiyya - a concise companion manual detailing the practical conduct expected of the sincere spiritual seeker: in sitting, speaking, eating, listening, dress, travel, receiving guests, visiting the sick, and attending funerals. Together, the two works form an essential corpus for understanding classical Sunni Sufism.

About the editor

Anas b. Muhammad Adnan al-Sharafawi: Anas b. Muhammad Adnan al-Sharafawi is a contemporary Damascene scholar and muhaqqiq (verifier and editor of classical texts) whose work centers on the disciplines of creed, logic, and Sufism. He teaches within the Ash'ari tradition in theology, giving lessons on 'aqida and logic, among them al-Bayjuri's celebrated gloss on the Jawharat al-Tawhid, and he is active in transmitting these foundational sciences to students. He has prepared more than fifty critical editions, the bulk of them for Dar al-Taqwa in Damascus and several flagship titles for Dar al-Minhaj, the Jeddah and Beirut house known for high-quality editions of Shafi'i and Ash'ari texts. For Dar al-Minhaj he edited al-Qushayri's al-Risala al-Qushayriyya, the most widely circulated classical manual of Sufism, and Imam al-Ghazali's al-Iqtisad fi al-I'tiqad, a key statement of Ash'ari theology. His other verified editions include al-Sanusi's Umm al-Barahin (al-'Aqida al-Sughra), al-Bayhaqi's al-I'tiqad wa al-Hidaya ila Sabil al-Rashad, and Ibn 'Abbad's commentary on the Hikam of Ibn 'Ata' Allah. His editions are appreciated for careful collation of manuscripts and a clear, accessible layout that serves both seminary students and general readers approaching the classical literature of theology and the spiritual path.
