Recentering the Sufi Shrine is a study of ritual, Sufi eschatology,
and vernacular theopoetics of pilgrimage to Sufi shrines in the
Indus region of Pakistan. The book examines the distinction between
two different ritual contestations over pilgrimage to Sufi tombs:
(1) an exposition of Tariqa-i Muhammadiyya's millenarian
Scripturalist reform of Sufism, and (2) Bulleh Shah's (d. 1767)
vernacular Sufism, a hard-hitting Sufi-poet of textual ("bookish")
knowledge of religious scholars. This is the first work examining
the legal theology of ritual intervention in using scripture to
regulate the resurrected bodies of saints, on the one hand, and the
ritual metaphysics of presence in understanding the significance
and meaning of Sufi shrines, on the other.
