The rich mystical tradition of the Near and Middle East is the
fascinating subject of this wide-ranging study by Dr Margaret
Smith, a renowned writer in this field. Her book explores the
relationship between the rise and development of a mystical element
in Islam - which we know as Sufism - and the mysticism that was
already to be found within the Christian Church of the Near and
Middle East, at the time when Arab power was establishing itself
and the faith of Islam was in the process of development and
formulation. In this earliest period of Islamic mysticism, the
contacts between Christianity and Islam were at their closest. Here
Dr Smith presents the mystics' teachings and allows their own
writings to speak for them, offering an illuminating comparison
between the early mystical doctrines of two great religious
traditions, and celebrating their shared devotion and inspiration.
