The Religion Of The Sufis

Book Summary

Constantly quoted and widely read for the three centuries since it was written, this book by a scholar of the East based in India gives an excellent insight into what the Sufis of the time gave out as their teaching, and what scholars and others thought of them. It well vindicates its prefatory phrase: "containing what has been reported by thosewho know what is manifest, and see what is concealed; as well as by those who are attached to exterior forms, and by those who discern the inward meaning" without hatred, enmity and scorn, and without taking a part for the one, or against the other side of the question.
