Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: I felt like I should have paid more - This book is worth every penny, and more. At its core is a poem, the "Burda" (i.e. mantle) that was written by a Muslim of the 13th century (Imam Busiri) as an act of devotion and love towards the final messenger of Allah swt, the prophet Muhammad pbuh. The poetry speaks to the reader in such a way that it is impossible to deny the love and yearning that existed in the poet towards the final messenger, pbuh. The scholar who compiled the book, Sheikh Abdal Hakim Murad, aka Tim Winter, has not only translated the Burda into beautiful English, from beautiful Arabic, he has also done an excellent job of embellishing this publication with beautiful and diverse poetry that adds to the core poetic narrative. He has tried to relate each embellishment to the specific lines of the Burda on each page, and this gives us an insight into his mind too in addition to Imam Busiri. There is a clear and concise introduction to the Burda in the front of the book, as well as an introduction to its original author. As far as the physical condition of the book is concerned, it is a book you will feel obliged to handle with utmost care because the quality is excellent and you will want to keep it that way. The Islamic calligraphy and geometric patterns are mesmerising, and even the very paper itself is of very high quality. It is a book that has to be seen first-hand in order to be truly appreciated. Review: Five Stars - Excellent copy worth any library/collection. The paper is definitely excellent and makes you love the book. The Arabic calligraphy is graceful and the translation with other verses combined makes it a nice version. It will go into my library and worth reading multiple times after finishing and pondering over the beautiful lines. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 999,884 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 116,445 in Religion & Spirituality (Books) | | Customer reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (43) | | Dimensions | 17.2 x 1.91 x 24.1 cm | | ISBN-10 | 1872038158 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1872038155 | | Item weight | 0.28 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 180 pages | | Publication date | 1 Oct. 2009 | | Publisher | Quilliam Press Ltd | ## Images ![The Mantle Adorned: Translated, with Further Poetic Ornaments - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31nzNy6wUOL.jpg) ![The Mantle Adorned: Translated, with Further Poetic Ornaments - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51N5oBcK2PL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I felt like I should have paid more *by S***T on 20 May 2012* This book is worth every penny, and more.
