More about the book

Focusing on the mystical aspect of Islam, the book delves into Sufism, a movement that emphasizes love for God over fear or reward. Originating in the ninth century, Sufism has profoundly influenced Islamic civilization through music, philosophy, dance, and literature, with Rumi being a notable figure. However, it has faced challenges from extremist movements and modernist perspectives in recent times. The work explores the beliefs, history, and contributions of Sufi saints and schools, offering a deeper understanding of this spiritual dimension of Islam.
