M. Ali Lakhani, QC (born 1955) is a writer, lawyer, and editor whose works focus on metaphysics and the perennial principles found in the wisdom traditions of the world.

Biography

Born in England in 1955, Lakhani was educated at The King’s School, Canterbury before getting his undergraduate and graduate degrees in law from Cambridge University. He immigrated to Vancouver in 1973, and was called to the Bar in British Columbia in 1979. He practises law in Vancouver as a trial lawyer. In 2015, he was conferred the designation of “Queen’s Counsel” by the Lieutenant-Governor of British Columbia to recognize his work as a lawyer.

In 1998, he founded the Traditionalist journal, Sacred Web. The bi-annual journal has included contributions by many leading traditionalists including Titus Burckhardt, Ananda K. Coomaraswamy, Jean-Louis Michon, Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Frithjof Schuon, Huston Smith, and HRH The Prince of Wales. In the words of Professor Nasr, “Along with Sophia, Sacred Web is the most important journal in the English language devoted to the study of tradition.”

In 2001, Ali was invited to address the International Congress on Imam ‘Ali in Iran where he presented his essay on the Metaphysics of Human Governance. This essay garnered the First Prize in English at the conferences and awarded at a special ceremony in Tehran in March 2002. A revised version of this essay is included in “The Sacred Foundations of Justice” (see Bibliography below). The anthology has been described by Professor Nasr Seyyed Hossein Nasr, as “among the best writings on this extraordinary figure in Western languages and are obligatory reading for anyone interested in ‘Ali but not familiar with Islamic languages.”[1]

An anthology of some of his writings was published by World Wisdom in 2010 under the title “The Timeless Relevance of Traditional Wisdom” (see Bibliography).

In 2016, he was appointed by His Highness The Aga Khan as a member of the International Conciliation and Arbitration Board.
