*Sajjad H. Rizvi, Journal of Islamic Studies*
The publications that are planned within this project will no doubt
rekindle the interest of scholars and students of Islam in Islam's
rich cultural, educational and historical legacy ... The work of
the Ikhwan al-Safa, like many other works that make up the
classical Muslim educational thought, need to be seriously studied
and reflected upon. This new publication project contributes
immensely towards realizing this educational aim.

Brethren of Purity series*
