Al-Qushayri was born in AH 376/986 AD in Ustawa. He trained under Shaykh Abu ‘Ali al-Dakkak and became his successor. In his later life he relocated to Baghdad, where the caliph al-Qa’im had invited him to teach hadith in his palace.
The present work is a treatise on Sufism by Al-Qushayri, which was completed in AH 438/1046 AD . The work is divided into fifty-four babs (chapters) and seeks to outline the principles and terminology of Sufism, which reflects his life-long interest in mystical topics (Bosworth et al, 1986, p.527). This copy has been read under the Dome of the Rock in Temple Mount in the Old City of Jerusalem as stated on the marginal notes on folios 60,187, 195, 208, 218 and, 226.
Nine copies of this work are known to have survived, the oldest dates to AH 505/1110-11 AD in the British Library (Rieu, 2013, p.147, no.227).
