About the Contributor(s)
About the author
Muhammad ibn Sulayman al-Jazuli: Muhammad ibn Sulayman al-Jazuli (d. 870 AH / 1465 CE) was a Moroccan saint and Sufi guide of the Shadhili tradition, best known as the compiler of Dalaʾil al-Khayrat (The Waymarks of Benefits), the most beloved and widely transmitted collection of litanies invoking blessings upon the Prophet Muhammad. A Berber of the Jazula tribe of the Sus, the region between the Atlantic and the Atlas mountains, he was born in the early ninth century AH and traveled to Fes for his studies, lodging in one of its madrasas. He took the Shadhili path, spent many years in seclusion, and afterward settled in the Moroccan south, where his zawiya drew large numbers of followers and became a center of devotion and renewal of love for the Prophet. He followed the Maliki school in law, as was customary across the Maghrib. Dalaʾil al-Khayrat spread from Morocco across the Muslim world, copied in countless manuscripts and recited daily in mosques and homes from West Africa to the Indian subcontinent and the Ottoman lands. Al-Jazuli died at Afughal, where reports hold that he was poisoned during the dawn prayer. Roughly seventy years later his body was transferred to Marrakesh by the Saadian ruler Ahmad al-Aʿraj, and he came to be counted among the Seven Saints of Marrakesh, his mausoleum a long-standing site of visitation.
About the commentator
Nuh Ha Mim Keller: Nuh Ha Mim Keller (b. 1954 CE) is an American Islamic scholar, translator, and Sufi teacher who has lived and taught in Amman, Jordan, since the 1990s. Born in Washington State to a German American family, he studied philosophy and Arabic at the University of Chicago and UCLA, and embraced Islam in 1977 after a path that began in Roman Catholicism. He is best known for Reliance of the Traveller (1991), his richly annotated English translation of ʿUmdat al-Salik, a classical manual of Shafiʿi sacred law. It was the first Islamic legal work in a European language to receive certification from al-Azhar, and it remains a standard English reference for Shafiʿi fiqh. He also produced Al-Maqasid, a translation of Imam al-Nawawi's concise manual of worship, alongside fiqh studies such as Port in a Storm, on the qibla in North America, and essays on the concept of bidʿa. On the Sufi path, Keller was a longtime disciple of the Damascene Shadhili master and poet Shaykh ʿAbd al-Rahman al-Shaghouri, with whom he studied from 1982 until the shaykh's death in 2004, and who authorized him as a shaykh in the order in 1996. His Sea Without Shore presents a manual of the Sufi path. Through his translations, teaching circles, and a seminary he established in Amman, he has become a widely read voice for traditional Sunni scholarship and Sufism in the English-speaking world.
