Summary: The classic work on the Sufi path
Comment: "Irshad" is easily the best 20th century work of it's kind, with thiry-three chapters covering a wide territory of information. The chapters are by subject and each includes ayats (verses) from the Quran, hadith, and Sufi teaching stories to drive the message home. "Irshad" is the classic work from Muzaffer Ozak (K.S.) available in English. With the myriad of books on "Sufi stories" in the marketplace, it is refreshing to have an authoritative book that places them in their appropriate context. "Irshad" is a desert-island book if there ever was one.

Summary: Delightfully insightive
Comment: ...I enjoyed this book due to its utter simplicity in defining the essence of the Islamic spiritual perspective. Most Western readers and adherants of Islam would find a wealth of insight in this work, their vehicle being stories, odes, and folklore. It is written in a way that even a young person can easily identify the spiritual truths the shaykh is illustrating. If all of us who claim to follow the teachings of Muhammad (pbuh)come to understand the spiritual truths exposed in this book we might understand what defines Islam a little better.

The work charts the Sufi spiritual path and discipline through discourse and dialogue, story and prayer, scriptural commentary and spontaneous mystical teachings in worship and action The spirit of the work is reflected in the words of the author:
O my Generous Master' You created this servant of Yours and brought him into being from a drop of water I do not even have the right to say I love You, and yet I do love You. I always remember You I know that even my being able to remember.
You is also due to Your guidance. My mentioning Your Name of Majesty left me drunk, bewildered, and amazed. Is it possible to imagine anyone in this world loving the Divinity and not becoming intoxicated with such affection ? So great a blessing is affection that even if its possessor should stray into the wilderness, the fire of his love would not allow him to feel the heat of the desert. Should the lover fall into the fire, the heat of his love would extinguish that fire. The fire of love would cause the poles and glaciers to melt. If mountains and boulders were piled upon the back of the lover, the fire of his love would prevent his feeling the weight of the load. Affection makes a person forget about hunger and thirst, and keeps him on the road of love. '
