Description from the publisher:
The edition before you presents Ibn 'Ajiba's (1747-1809) commentary on the great gnostic ?Abd al-Salam ibn Mashish al-?Alami's (1211–1294) celebrated salutation; or ta?liyah; upon the Prophet of Islam. The salutation; commonly known as As-Salat al-Mashishiyah ('The Prayer of Ibn Mashish'); is a seminal piece of literature read throughout the Muslim world. Prayers upon the Prophet were initiated by God (Qur'an 33:56); instructed by the Prophet himself; and dutifully carried out by illustrious generations since the Prophetic companions.
