The Wisdom of the Arabs by Suheil Bushri

The Wisdom of the Arabs by Suheil Bushri

The Wisdom of the Arabs is a collection of fundamental texts brought together by Suheil Bushri, which takes as its starting point the Book par excellence The Koran and the words of the Prophet Muhammad (Hadiths). He also refers to literature and popular traditions, rich in practical and judicious teachings, ranging from the Arabian Nights to mystical poems, to finally flourish in the poems of the Lebanese sage Kahlil Gibran.

An attractive work where elegant arabesques combine practical wisdom, spirituality, humor, joys, sorrows, passions and love. It will allow the honest man to form an objective point of view on the Arab world, beyond the commonly accepted untruths. He will thus discover a continent full of philosophy and knowledge, harmoniously mixing religious wisdom and profane wisdom...
