Description
Sufism: A Global History by Nile Green offers a comprehensive and insightful exploration of this influential Islamic tradition. From its origins in the ninth century to its spread across the Middle East, Asia, Africa, and beyond, this book provides a detailed account of Sufi Islam's history and development. Green's work dismantles common stereotypes surrounding Sufis, instead revealing their integral role within their communities. The author's research is up-to-date, making this an ideal introduction to Sufism for those new to the subject or seeking a deeper understanding of its global phenomenon. With equal attention given to Sufi Islam's theology, ritual, and social dimensions, this book provides a nuanced and balanced perspective on a rich and complex topic.
