Rumi (Traditional Wisdom)

This pocket-sized illustrated edition is in fine condition—clean and unmarked. The pages are tight and appear unread, and the dust jacket is pristine. Rumi: Traditional Wisdom is a 2015 collection of poems by the 13th-century Persian poet and Sufi mystic Jalaluddin Rumi, translated by Raficq Abdulla, a distinguished poet, lawyer, and translator. Featuring selections that reflect Rumi’s spiritual insights, the book is richly decorated with miniatures and manuscript art, including ancient Mathnavis, enhancing the visual and poetic experience. Abdulla’s translations are praised for capturing the lyrical depth of the original Persian.
