Publisher's Synopsis
In The Shadow and the Unseen, Abu Malik Silawi invites readers on a transformative journey through the depths of the self, blending Islamic metaphysics, Jungian psychology, and the quantum mysteries of reality. Written with an open heart and a seeker's mind, this book offers a rare synthesis of ancient wisdom and modern insight-crafted for those navigating a world overwhelmed by distraction, division, and spiritual amnesia.
Drawing on the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, the mystical depth of Ibn Arabi, and the analytical brilliance of Carl Jung, this book acts as a guide for anyone longing to make peace with their shadow, remember their divine origin, and walk toward wholeness in an age of fragmentation.
Inside you'll explore:
The meaning of the "unseen" ('al-ghayb') in Islamic tradition and how it parallels Jung's concept of the unconscious
How shadow work can lead to spiritual integration, not just emotional healing
Insights into quantum reality, timelessness, and the subtle patterns that unite inner and outer worlds
How seekers today are often misled outward-when the greatest journey is inward
A call to move from disunity to unity, from ego to essence
This book doesn't just explore ideas-it offers tools. Through reflective questions, integration practices, and thematic guidance, The Shadow and the Unseen helps you bring these deep teachings into daily life. Whether you're navigating inner conflict, longing for spiritual depth, or seeking alignment with your purpose, this book offers a practical framework for inner transformation in today's hyper-connected, spiritually disconnected world.
This is more than a book. It's a call to remember, to reunite, and to awaken.
Whether you're a student of spirituality, psychology, or metaphysics-or simply someone feeling the pull of something deeper-The Shadow and the Unseen is a companion for your soul's return.
