      Exploring the intersection of Sufism and British Romanticism, this work highlights the influence of Sufi poetry on six major Romantic writers. It argues that these poets were drawn to Sufism for its alignment with their artistic goals, despite the prevailing focus on Christian and neo-Platonic Mysticism in scholarly discourse. The text examines how elements of Sufism, such as the concepts of Love, Light, and Knowledge, resonate in Romantic poetry, revealing shared themes of inward exploration and the pursuit of Beauty and Truth.
