Resalat Al-Ghufran ( Arabic رسالة الغفران), meaning The Epistle of Forgiveness, is a famous Arabic book from the 10th century written by Abu 'alaa' al-Tanookhy al-Ma'arri (Arabic أبو العلاء التنوخي المعري ). It is a book of divine comedy that concentrates on the Arabic poetical civilization but in a way that touches all aspects of life. The most interesting characteristics of Resalat Al-Ghufran are its genius digression, deep philosophy, and brilliant language. Some say that the Resalat Al-Ghufran has clearly had an influence on, or has even inspired, Alighieri Dante 's Divine Comedy.
