Although not widely known in the Western world, alHallaj is one of the great figures in the history of the Muslim religion. Martyred in 922 by the government for his teachings, alHallaj has lived on through the centuries in the legends and memories of Muslims the world over. The reader who meets alHallaj for the first time in this book will be impressed by the striking similarities he shares with Jesus Christ, Socrates, and the Jewish Hasidic masters. AlHallaj is a man so caught up in God's love that he speaks with the wisdom of a mystic. Yet he is worldly and downtoearth in his affection, his wit, and his joy. In this dramatic narrative of the last days of alHallaj, Herbert Mason has distilled the essence of alHallaj in moving, beautifully drawn scenes with his son, his protectress, and a devoted disciple. The timeless confrontation between freedom and political expediency, between faith and fatalism, ends here in love that is stronger than death. So finely has Mason presented alHallaj that the fire of his love reaches across the centuries to glow again on these pages. This is a book to read, and to reread.
