Kernel of the Kernel: Concerning the Wayfaring and Spiritual Journey of the People of Intellect (Risāla-yi Lubb al-Lubāb dar Sayr wa Sulūk-i Ulu'l-Albāb)
Description:A Shīʻī approach to Sufism from the teachings of Sayyid Muḥammad Ḥusayn Ṭabāṭabāʼī. Compiled, edited, and expanded by Sayyid Muḥammad Ḥusayn Ḥusaynī Tihrānī. Translated [from the Persian] by Mohammad Hassan Faghfoory. Foreword by Seyyed Hossein Nasr.Kernel of the Kernel is an authoritative work on Sufism from a Shī'ī perspective that is not only fascinating, but also contains much practical advice. In addition to providing a theoretical discussion of spiritual wayfaring, it is also the account of a personal fifty-year spiritual journey by Sayyid Muḥammad Ḥusayn Ṭabāṭabāʼī, a renowned Iranian-Shī'ī scholar and spiritual master. In Kernel of the Kernel, Ṭabāṭabāʼī discusses the doctrinal foundations of spiritual wayfaring as well as processes and stages that an aspiring wayfarer must go through in order to attain spiritual realization. He discusses the relation between the exoteric and esoteric aspects of Islam and clearly demonstrates that these inward and outward dimensions of Islam complement each other. The book also provides information on the Qur'ānic origins of Sufism and its special relations with Shī'īsm as well as the role of Shī'ī Imams in the spiritual realization of a sincere wayfarer.“Aside from its historical and theological background, the Lubb al-Lubab or Kernel of the Kernel stands by itself as a masterpiece in the field of spirituality and gnosis. While naturally couched in the language and terminology of the Qur'ān and Hādīth, it conveys a message of universal order meant for all human beings.” — from the Foreword by Seyyed Hossein NasrSayyid Muḥammad Ḥusayn Ṭabāṭabāʼī (1901–1982) was a prominent Muslim scholar who taught Islamic philosophy, jurisprudence, ethics, and gnosis in the seminaries of Qum, Iran.
