<p>The Mantle Adorned is a completely new translation of the Burda (Mantle Poem) of Imam Sharaf al-Din al-Busiri (d.1297). Abdal Hakim Murad has consulted the classical commentaries to produce this clear and careful English version.\nMurad has added to each verse a further verse of poetry by another poet, which expresses a similar sentiment of love for the Blessed Prophet. The book therefore serves as the best collection currently available in English of poems in praise of the Seal of the Messengers, may Allah bless him and give him peace. Poets represented include Rumi, Attar, Ibn Hazm, Nanotvi, Yahya Parkinson, Rilke, and many more.\nThe translation includes a foreword by Professor Recep Sentürk of the Centre for Islamic Studies (ISAM), Istanbul.</p>
