Sufi Ritual - The Parallel Universe (Paperback)

This major work highlights the importance of Sufi ritual and locates it within the broader domain of the Islamic world. It reveals the world of Sufi ritual with particular reference to two major Sufi orders, examining their ritual and practices, and surveying their organisation and hierarchy, initiation ceremonies, and aspects of their liturgy such as dhikr (litany) and sama (mystical concert). Comparisons are made with the five pillars of Islam (arkan).
