Abstract:

The purpose of this article is to examine the intersections between the corpus of sayings in the Sufi tradition and the changing realities in the period between the third/ninth and seventh/thirteenth centuries. The main hypothesis is that masters’ sayings were neither expressions of abstract theories nor mere responses to changing forms of religious identities but rather a powerful engine for the shifts then occurring in the Sufi tradition as a whole. This notion is examined from two realms. The first is an examination of the ways Sufi sayings went far beyond being a vessel for mystical themes

Abstract:

The Way of the Sufi (2015) stands as a significant signpost into Sufi literature, offering profound insights into the mystical tradition of Sufism, and introducing revered Sufi figures, their ideologies, and texts. This study analyses Shah's main work, focusing on its portrayal of Sufi philosophy, enlightenment practices, and transmission of spiritual knowledge through literary styles used in the book. The study argues that Sufi literature’s effective method of spiritual guidance and enlightenment is empowered by the distinctive narrative style and philosophical themes presented by the Sufis i

Abstract This article aims to introduce some inquiries concerning travel as a customary mode of ascetic life among early Sufis in the period between the third/ninth and sixth/twelfth centuries. Two prominent concepts are involved in this discussion: siyāḥa and safar. While safar was a general term that refers to a wide spectrum of traditions and customs included in the medieval Islamic culture of travel, the term siyāḥa indicated the custom of roving in solitude without provisions undertaken by some early ascetics and Sufis. The use of both terms over the course of the period under discussion

Abstract:

The Sufi term “tasting” (dhawq) and its semantic cognates “drinking” (shirb / shurb) and “quenching of thirst” (riyy) appear frequently in the Sufi writings of the ninth — eleventh centuries AD to denote a mystical experience of the true reality of God and the divine creation. Originally referring primarily to the mystic's psychological or somatic state (hal), in later Sufi literature and oral teachings, especially in the writings of Ibn al‑‘Arabi (560—638 / 1165—1240), these concepts acquire metaphysical and cosmological connotations and are construed as being shared by both God and his elect

Abstract This paper addresses a paradox at the heart of the classical Sufi tradition. On the one hand, key Sufi writers express a radical universalism or ‘transconfessionalism’ in their mystical verse. This has led a variety of modern scholars to identify Sufism as an ecumenical and non-dogmatic tradition. On the other hand, in other writings the selfsame authors conduct a vigorous literary polemic and celebrate missionary efforts against unbelievers of all stripes, yet with a notable emphasis on Jewish unbelievers.

The Sufis interpret the verses by delving into their meaning with doctrines and spiritual experiences, going beyond the text's literal meaning.

Abstract:

There are many Kazakh Sufis in the Kazakh lands, starting from Khoja Ahmet Yassawi Hazret, who prayed and begged Allahutaala (swt). One of them and the most important of them is the famous Kazakh Sufi poet Meshur Jusip Kopeyulı. The Sufi defended Islamic civilisation and spiritual values, and considered reason and science as a means for man to know Allah (swt). It is known that the poet who believes that Allah (swt) is the only One and the Prophet (pbuh) is His messenger has an open heart. By combining scientific and religious knowledge in his works, the poet contributed to the correct underst

Abstract:

Jalal al-Din Rumi is one of the most controversial figures of medieval Sufi poetry. Thesystem of his ideas, which originate from the legacy of earlier Sufi scholars, can be traced in many mod-ern pop-cultural elements. The article examines Sufi motifs presented in Jalal al-Din Rumi’s writings as they appear in the novel Love(Aşk) written by the modern English writer of Turkish origin Elif Shafak. Turning to religious and philosophical motifs in modern literature is associated with the ambiguous popularity of Rumi in the Western media space. The purpose of this study is to identify the features

Abstract:

This article is devoted to the analysis of Sufi symbols in the Tatar poetry of the 15th-16th centuries. The historical line of succession of Islamic culture from Volga Bulgaria to the era of the Kazan Khanate can be clearly seen in the examples of the common symbolic images in Sufi poetry. The Bolgar-Tatar Islamic culture of the Middle Ages contains Quranic and esoteric symbolic forms, which are especially clearly traced in Sufi literature. This paper presents hermeneutic analysis of some poetic works written by the poets of this era, such as Muhammediyar, Kul Sharif and Ummi Kamal. It reveals

Abstract This article analyses the Sufi treatise al-Ādāb al-marḍiyya fī l-ṭarīqa al-naqshbandiyya written by the Daghestanian Naqshbandī shaykh Jamāl al-Dīn al-Ghāzīghumūqī (d. 1866/67), the Sufi master, companion and father-in-law of Imām Shāmil (d. 1871). After providing an outline of the life and activities of Shaykh Jamāl al-Dīn I will examine the concepts, persons, and practices treated in his Ādāb which not only provide valuable insights regarding the mystical orientation of the Sufi shaykh, but the North Caucasian Naqshbandiyya during the anti-Russian jihād movement in the 19th century.

Sufis, particularly the Alevi and Bektashi communities, tend to be overlooked within in Western Thrace, where Muslim identity is dominated by Orthodox Islam (i.e., Sunnism) for both cultural and political reasons. Consequently, the sacred places of groups that are perceived to be heterodox are, similar to these groups themselves, rendered invisible and many times deliberately left to obscurity.

In this paper, we have argued that Lawrence’s interest in what is ancient wisdom brings him in direct or indirect contact with Sufi metaphysics. This outlook on the world brings him closer to a Sufi universe in two ways. Firstly, Lawrence portrays romantic relationships in a mystical language, he presents the sensuous relationships as sacred activities through which the characters aspire to self-discovery. Lawrence`s portrayal of romantic love corresponds with the higher concept of love in Sufi literature. Secondly, this paper takes a closer look at some of Lawrence’s spiritual works including

In addition to these political and economic factors, Aceh's connectivity with the Islamic World was also connected through the Sufism network, where Sufis from Aceh sailed to Arabia and several other Muslim regions in order to study. These Sufis then returned to Aceh and established Islamic spiritual centers in Aceh and other Southeast Asian regions. The activities of these Sufis, in turn, helped connect Aceh to the global Islamic ne
