This book explores how Sufis approach their faith as Muslims,
upholding an Islamic worldview, but going about making sense of
their religion through the world in which they exist, often in
unexpected ways. Using a phenomenological approach, the book
examines Sufism as lived experience within the Muslim lifeworld,
focusing on the Muslim experience of Islamic history. It draws on
selected case studies ranging from classic Sufism to Sufism in the
contemporary era mainly taken from biographical and hagiographical
data, manuscript texts, and treatises. In this way, it provides a
revisionist approach to theories and methods on Sufism, and, more
broadly, the category of mysticism.
