The Egyptian judge and man of letters, Ibn Abi al-?Id al-Sakhawi al-Maliki, who lived in Cairo and Medina in the ninth/fifteenth century and who practiced charity his whole life, compiled a work titled the ?ilyat al-kurama', literally 'The Ornament of the Magnanimous.' A significant example of a flourishing genre devoted to generosity and a testament to the intense cultural and literary activity of the author's time, the ?ilyat al-kurama' includes aphorisms, poems, and anecdotes about benevolent individuals whose generosity is exemplified by the gifts and money they lavished on others and by the many ways they provided aid to the needy.

On Generosity comprises an introductory study on the work and its author, the first reliable and critical edition of the Arabic text, an annotated English translation, and glossaries designed to make the text more accessible to nonspecialists.…
