Sufism - The Essentials (Paperback)

Although it is the Sufi face of Islam that has often appealed to Westerners, Sufis and Sufism remain mysterious to many in the West and are still widely misunderstood. In this new book, Mark Sedgwick succinctly presents the essentials of Sufism and shows how Sufis live and worship.

This book assumes no prior knowledge of the subject. It is a penetrating and concise introduction for everyone interested in Islam and Islamic societies.
