    Eye of Spiritual-Excellence
    (Al-Arifeen Publications, 2022) Translated in English and Glossary by: M. A. Khan
    Enriched with classical Sufi ideas, „Ayn Al-Faqr is one of the masterpieces in prose-writing by Sult n l-‟Ārifīn Sultan Bahoo (RA). The literal meaning of „Ayn Al-Faqr is „the eye of faqr‟. Faqr is described as the highest state in the union with Almighty Allah ) )جل جلاله, which is spiritual-excellence. Therefore, this book provides a pervasive awareness about the realities of human beings‟ extern l nd innermost states as observed by the sight of spiritual-excellence. The writings of Sult n l-‟Ārifīn Sultan Bahoo (RA) are enriched with spiritual experiences and provide complete guidance for a questing desirous of Divine recognition and unison. The readers and scholars interested in the literature of Sult n l-‟Ārifīn Sultan Bahoo (RA) are taught how to fly as a falcon in the sky of spiritual realm and path of spiritual-excellence (faqr). Even though the book is in a prose form, the poetic stanzas in the book add honour and deep understanding. The book consists of ten chapters with distinguish headings. Sult n l-‟Ārifīn educates his readers regarding dangers and difficulties faced by the Divine desirous on the path of spiritual-excellence. Whilst his spiritual message is the core of his teachings, there are also discussions on Islamic-law, theology as well as social, cultural and political aspects. Like his famous work in Punjabi „A yāt Bahoo‟, his Persi n books also contain the tales and daily-life examples of his era and region, making them interesting for scholars and common persons alike. The Persian books of Sult n l-‟Ārifīn Sultan Bahoo (RA) have been unknown to the English audience especially the West until recent past. One of the reasons is that original Persian manuscripts of majority of his books are still not available. In addition, there is a lack of quality English translation of the books whose manuscripts are available. Mr. M. A. Khan has placed his utmost efforts to get the original versions EYE OF SPIRITUAL-EXCELLENCE („AYN AL-FAQR) xiv translated into English while maintaining the essence of ideas put forth in these books. Efforts put by the translator while translating the book and providing English readers access to the Persian and Sufi literature from the mystical perspective with unique spiritual terminologies used in this book are highly commendable. The translator, Mr. M. A. Khan, has translated the very deep spiritual concepts of Sult n l-‟Ārifīn Sultan Bahoo (RA) in a very simple and concise manner. This is the result of consistent and arduous work of Mr. M. A. Khan on the manuscripts of Sultan Bahoo (RA). In addition to publishing a number of articles on Sufism, he has translated numerous works of Sult n l-‟Ārifīn Sultan Bahoo (RA) into English including Persian book Nūr-ul-Hudá (Kalān) and Punjabi by t „A yāt Bahoo‟. To simplify the readings, footnotes have been added in this book where deemed necessary for a clear and concise understanding of spiritual concepts and contexts. A glossary prepared by the translator is provided at the end of the book that explains the specific Sufi terminologies. For this first edition, feedbacks and comments by the readers would be highly appreciated for the possible improvements in the next edition of the book. Hopefully, this book will bring a new flavour to the English readers opening up new horizons for research on the intellectual and spiritual legacy of Sult n l-‟Ārifīn Sultan Bahoo"
