Description
The Kasidah of Haji Abdu El-Yezdi is a long poem written by "Haji Abdu El-Yezdi," who was an invention by the true author Sir Richard Francis Burton (1821-1890). The Kasidah of Haji Abdu El-Yezdi translates to "Lay of the Higher Law." The Kasidah was a distillation of Sufi thought. Burton hoped to bring the ideas of Surfism to the West. This book has a biography for the assumed author as well as notes on the poem itself.
