Summary

Istimā’: Sound, Music, and the Sacred in Islam

The universe began with sound: the Divine Creative Command Kun (Be!). It reverberated with tarab (musical ecstasy) through all existence, from the Divine Throne to the human heart.

This book explores the history of sound and music as a sacred journey to God in Islamic spirituality, from the Quran’s initial revelation to the Prophet Muhammad to the present-day response to religious extremism.
