Description

The Sufis is a thought-provoking exploration of the Sufi principle of 'scatter', which deliberately eschews a definitive definition in favour of offering a glimpse into the intangible nature of Sufism. This book presents a unique and unstructured approach, throwing out ideas that reveal the shape of something beyond words.

First published in 1964, The Sufis has had a profound influence on those interested in Sufi thought, attracting a range of notable admirers. It remains the most important modern book written on the subject, offering a close approximation to an experience of Sufism in written form.

For those seeking to understand the principles of Sufism, this book is an essential starting point. Its unique approach makes it an ideal choice for anyone looking to explore this complex and multifaceted philosophy.
