Opowiadania muzułmańskie zawierające słowa Jezusa

Riwayat is a literary genre recalling the Sayings of the Desert Fathers, but created in the realm of Arabic literature. Interest in riwayat has been on the rise and, as knowledge of ancient Arabic literature has improved, increasing numbers of these short tales have come to be known. The edition of Asín Palacios, on which we base this translation, includes words spoken by Jesus and other figures. The most recent translation, rendered into Italian by Sabino Chialà, gives a collection of 383 agrapha. The present article cites 103 short tales; the remaining stories are being prepared based on their original language.
