Ya'qub ibn Yusuf

A radiantly beautiful soul and a man who defies definition, Ya'qub ibn Yusuf is perhaps the most striking living example of one who has succeeded in creating a dynamic fusion of New Age mysticism and traditional Abrahamic religion. Having been ordained as a Jewish Renewal rabbi as well as acknowledged as a Sufi Sheikh, Ya'qub resides in Jerusalem where he's the proprietor of Olam Qatan, a store specializing in spiritual books and world music. Possessing an encyclopaedic knowledge of 20th century New Age movements, communities, and personalities, in addition to selling music and books, Ya'qub serves as a spiritual point of reference to an abundance of souls and seekers, locally and the world over, embracing the broadest spectrum of national, cultural, and religious backgrounds.
