Summary

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the MostMerciful.

I am truly honored and delighted to be writing theforeword for this invaluable work on Islamic Sufism.For decades now, Islamic Sufism has gar neredattention from generations of Western scholars ofIslam. Classical works and translations have beenproduced on Omar Khayyam, Rabia Basri, and Imamal-Ghazali—as well as the poets of Persia and theirArab counterparts and Shaykhs of Sufi orders. Theseeds they have planted have grown to bear fruit inthe East and West alike. Here we are, generationslater, still studying the layered dimensions ofIslamic esotericism.
