Book Synopsis

*Advance Praise & Reviews*
"A profound and accessible meditation on the mystery of God's presence in human experience."-- Publishers Weekly

Voted as one of The Best Spiritual Books of 2021 by Spiritual Magazine The renowned Benedictine writer Brother David Steindl-Rast offers meditations on each of the 99 names of God found in the Islamic creed, to provide readers with an introduction to and a way of understanding another faith. Each name is rendered in its original Arabic by the masterful calligrapher, Shams Anwari-Alhosseyni.

In this inspiring and meditative journey with God, we explore our relationship to the nameless and open ourselves to the "Secret" that connects us all. In this sense, the book speaks to people of any religious belief who, through the many names of God, enter the gate of the one nameless Mystery that unites us.
