UDK 929 Suhrawardi

Iako je jedna od najznačajnijih ličnosti u historiji islamske filozofije, Suhrawardi je imao veoma kratak, ali plodonosan život, još od djetinjstva ispunjen putovanjima i stjecanjem znanja. No, njegovo znanje i dominantnost u debatama pribavili su mu mnoge neprijatelje, što ga je na kraju koštalo života. Među Suhrawardijeva djela, koja su poznata kao “kratke vizionarske poslanice”, spada Risālah fi hālāt el-tuflijjah (Poslanica o stanjima djetinjstva). Ova poslanica govori o procesu stjecanja znanja pred duhovnim učiteljem.

On the States of Childhood

Shaikh Shihab al-Din Suhrawardi

Translation and introduction by Hamza Halitović

Abstract

Although he is one of the most significant figures in the history of Islamic philosophy, Suhrawardi had a very short but fruitful life, filled with travels and the acquisition of knowledge since childhood. However, his knowledge and dominance in debates earned him many enemies, which eventually cost him his life. Among Suhrawardi's works known as “short visionary epistles” is Risāla fī hālāt el-tufliyya (Epistle on the states of childhood). This epistle talks about the process of acquiring knowledge before a spiritual teacher.
