Sufi Way
''Poem of the Sufi Way'', or ''Nazm al-suluk'', is a poem by the Sufi mystic and scholar, Shayk Umar ibn al-Farid. An exact date of the poem's writing is unknown as Umar ibn al-Farid (1181-1235ad) is said to have written this text during the course of many years. Widely remarked as Umar ibn al-Farid's most famous work, the poem itself is one of the longest pieces of Sufi literature to date, and is still held in high regard by modern Sufi practitioners. It is 760 verses long. It is often referred to as al-Ta'iyya al-kubra (the Greater Poem Rhyming in T) to differentiate it from a shorter ode that also rhymes in t. The title can also be translated to "the Poem of Progress".
==Origins==
The origins of this work are shrouded in mythology. Most accounts of the poem's construction derive from Shayk ibn al-Farid's grandson, Ali sibt Ibn al-Farid in his biographical work ''Adorned Proem to the Diwan'' (Dibijat al-Diwan), heralding his grandfather's legacy and many of the stories surrounding it. According to Ali, Umar ibn al-Farid "would fall into deathlike trances for days, then recover and spontaneously recite verses directly inspired by God; these verses were then collected to form this long ode".〔Homerin, Emil. Umar Ibn Al-Farid : Sufi Verse, Saintly Life. Trans. Emil Homerin. New York: Paulist P, 2001.〕 In another story related by Ali, it is said that Umar received instruction from the prophet Muhammed himself, requesting that he title it as the "Poem of the Sufi Way", instead of the original title intended by Umar ibn al-Farid, "The Diaries of Hearts and the Gardens' Sweet Scents".
