Iblis in Paradise
Memoirs of Iblis (Part 1)
Author: Ali Bekki
Publisher: Ali Bekki
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
Memoirs of Iblis (Part One)" by Ali Bekki is a novel deeply rooted in the author's cultural and spiritual heritage, particularly his connection to the Middle East and North Africa. The book aims to offer a unique perspective on Satan, or "Shaitan" in Arabic, portraying him as a complex figure rather than the embodiment of pure evil often depicted in Western traditions. This narrative is more than just a retelling of ancient myths; it explores the intricate dance between good and evil, faith and doubt, and humanity's eternal quest to understand these concepts. The story revolves around Issam, a writer and researcher in mythology who leads a life of relative obscurity. His journey takes him to various corners of the globe, where he encounters many mystical and otherworldly figures, including a character identified as his "Qareen" in Damascus. Issam's experiences blend the real with the supernatural, challenging his perceptions and understanding of the world around him. He is confronted with a series of enigmatic and eerie occurrences, culminating in an encounter with a figure claiming to be Lucifer, who tasks Issam with writing his tale. The novel is rich in symbolism and metaphor, offering a personal and universal narrative. It invites readers from all backgrounds to question their preconceptions and explore new perspectives on the nature of good and evil, truth and knowledge, and the role of ancient beings in the modern world. Through Issam's journey, the author beckons the reader to delve into a realm that intertwines myth with reality, offering a fresh interpretation of ancient stories and characters.

The Poetics of Iblis
Author: Whitney S. Bodman
Publisher: Harvard Divinity School
ISBN: 9780674062412
Category : Devil
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Iblīs, the character in the Qur'an who refuses God's command to bow to Adam and is punished by eviction from heaven, is commonly depicted as a fiendish character no different from Satan. However, some Sufi stories describe Iblīs as the ultimate monotheist, a lover of God, but tragically rejected. This volume seeks the origins of this alternative Iblīs within the Qur'an itself, by looking at each of the seven Qur'anic versions of the Iblīs story as a unique rendering of the basic narrative. Whitney Bodman finds that the likely earliest version of the Iblīs story presents him as a tragic figure, an elder sibling of Adam unjustly displaced from God's favor. Subsequent renderings present an Iblīs more hostile to humanity, and in the last two abbreviated versions Iblīs becomes an incidental figure in the extended story of Adam. In modern Arab literature the character of Iblīs is deployed to reveal tragic dimensions of modern life. Although it is often said that there is no place for tragedy in Islam, Bodman's careful examination of the Iblīs story shows that the tragic exists even in the Qur'an and forms part of the vision of medieval Sufi mystics and modern social critics alike.
