Summary/Abstract: Shaykh Shihab al-Din Suhrawardi is one of the most significant thinkers and philosophers in the history of Islam. He is the founder of the school of illuminationism which influenced philosophical and Sufi thinkers alike. In addition to his extensive works in which he discusses peripatetic and illuminist philosophy, he also wrote a series of short epistles, which educate readers and invite them to a spiritual journey by using a language of allegories and metaphors.The Epistle of the Birds (Risala al-Tayr) is Suhrawardi’s translation from Arabic into Persian language of an epistle with the same name written by Ibn Sina. The main topic discussed in this epistle is the liberation of a spiritual traveler from the prison of this world’s existence and his return to God.
