Rumi Selected Poems by Jalal al-Din Rumi, Coleman Barks, John Moyne, A. J. Arberry, Reynold Alleyne Nicholson (trans)
The essential poems of the inspirational thirteenth-century Persian philosopher, scholar and mystic
The founder of the order of the Whirling Dervishes, Rumi was also a poet of transcendental power. His verse speaks with the universal voice of the human soul and brims with exuberant energy and passion. Rich in natural imagery, from flowers to birds and rivers to stars, the poems have an elemental force that has remained undiminished through the centuries. Their themes - tolerance, goodness, the experience of God, charity and awareness through love - still resonate with millions of readers around the world.

The Futuhat Project is the translation project by Dr. Eric Winkel of the entirety of al-Futuhat al-Makkiyah, The Openings Revealed in Makkah by Muhyiddin Ibn al-Arabi. This volume contains Books 1 & 2 of The Openings Revealed in Makkah and the project is anticipated to be completed in 2022 in nineteen volumes. The Greatest Teacher, al-Shaykh al-Akbar, Ibn al-Arabi dictated to his close friends this work of over 10,000 manuscript pages depicting the extraordinary vision of the Youth he encountered while circling the Kabah in Makkah. Despite its clear provenance as a completely accurate work, from the hand and mind of its transcriber, and its reputation through the centuries as the most significant and profound reflection of Islamic thought, the Futuhat al-Makkiyah has never been translated from the original classical Arabic in its entirety. From 2012, Dr. Winkel has been working exclusively on translating this work in order to produce the first complete translation into English of the Futuhat al-Makkiyah.
