Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the convergence and interrelation of the text of N¿la-yi ¿Andal¿b with its context.

Rezensionen

'Muhammad Nasir Andalib was a major Sufi thinker of eighteenth-century India. This is the first thorough study of his contribution. It is done with such scholarship and depth that no one considering Sufism in the eighteenth-century, or in the reform movements of the period in general, should ignore it.'

Francis Robinson, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK

'This is the first major academic work on the Nala-yi 'Andalib, a fascinating yet understudied Sufi text from eighteenth-century India. Through her impressive research in the manuscripts and acute analysis of the text, Dr Saghaee has made an important contribution to the study of Persianate Sufism and modern Islamic intellectual history more generally.'

Fitzroy Morrissey, University of Oxford, UK
