The first, \u003ci\u003eNaqsh al-Fuṣūṣ\u003c\/i\u003e (the Inscription of the Fuṣūṣ), is Ibn al-ʿArabī's own distillation of \u003ci\u003eFuṣūṣ al-ḥikam\u003c\/i\u003e, presenting a concise yet profound articulation of its core teachings. The second, \u003ci\u003eNaqd al-nuṣūṣ fī sharḥ Naqsh al-Fuṣūṣ\u003c\/i\u003e (texts commenting on \u003ci\u003eNaqsh al-Fuṣūṣ\u003c\/i\u003e), by ʿAbd al-Raḥmān Jāmī, is an anthology of carefully selected passages from the earliest and most authoritative interpreters of \u003ci\u003eFuṣūṣ al-ḥikam\u003c\/i\u003e, enriched with Jāmī's own insights. Together, these works explore the quintessential knowledge and divine principles embodied by each of the twenty-seven major prophetic figures of the Islamic tradition, from Adam to Muhammad. If \u003ci\u003eFuṣūṣ al-ḥikam\u003c\/i\u003e represents the culmination of Ibn al-ʿArabī's thought, then \u003ci\u003eNaqsh al-Fuṣūṣ\u003c\/i\u003e distills its very essence and inner mystery. Mukhtar H. Ali's meticulous presentation of the \u003ci\u003eFuṣūṣ al-ḥikam\u003c\/i\u003e commentarial tradition-featuring the first complete English translation of Jāmī's \u003ci\u003eNaqd al-nuṣūṣ\u003c\/i\u003e, chapter-by-chapter analysis, and extensive notes on key Sufi terms and concepts-establishes this volume as a landmark study in Islamic metaphysics and Sufi thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMukhtar H.
