Sufism: Its Saints and Shrines : An Introduction to the Study of Sufism with Special Reference to India Hardback
by JOHN SUBHAN, David Singh
Part of the Exploring the House of Islam: Perceptions of Islam in the Period of Western Ascendancy 1800-1945 series
Hardback
Description
A convert to Christianity from the Qadiri Order, John A.
Subhan is well-known for his seminal work, Sufism: Its Saints and Shrines.
Sufism prepared him for faith in Jesus and his Injil.
His Sufi background and intimate knowledge of its beliefs and practices enabled him to explain Sufism to others.
All ten chapters in Sufism are interesting, including chapter eight, which contains a comparative discussion of Sufism in the broader Hindu context.
It is a must read for all, not only because it is a window into the world of a great Sufi convert but also because his insight is still relevant today.
