    About this ebook

    The fifty-two chapters and five appendices which make up the main body of this book encompass a variety of thematic topics both within Islam, in general, as well as in relation to its mystical dimension, or tasawwuf (known in the West as 'the Sufi path) in particular. Taken collectively, the chapters and appendices provide a very good introduction to both the Sufi path as well as Islam.
