The Precious Pearl
الدرة الفاخرة (al-Durra al-fakhira)
A collection of portraits of the Sufi masters Ibn Arabi knew in al-Andalus and the Maghrib, complementary to the Ruh al-quds. It depicts men and women of simple life, often artisans or old women, with their sayings, practices and wonders, and is an essential source for twelfth-century Andalusi Sufism.
