What do you guys know of Shams al-Ma'arif? It is in my possession and I am learning Arabic so as to be able to read it. Anyone heard of it? Below is the wiki link:

Anyone else learning a language for the sole purpose of reading a book?

No one reads Arabic?

I know Arabic, OP. Just lost my eyesight after trying to read the text in your pic, though, so I don't think I can help you anymore.

I've read some of Al Buni's works. Am interested in an English translation of the Shams. Right now I'm reading about Western Black Magick - pic related- but Islamic Sihr is definitely interesting.
