### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Islamic philosophy of light
*by H***Y on 28 April 2011*

Whilst it is true that Imam Suhrawardi attempted to reconcile Zoroastrian philosophy with Islamic beliefs, I suspect the previous reviewer did not even read this book. In terms of it's philosophy, it is very similar if not identitical to the schema outlined in Shaykh Abd Al Qadir Al Jilani's book the Secret of Secrets. It explains the relationship between Allah as Al-Nur- The Divine Light with the light of the Angels, the light of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him and the light of the souls of humanity. Not a mention, nor even a hint of zoroastrianism nor any of it's terminology in this book. It is lucid and easy to follow with plenty of scriptual references.
