One should become beautiful in imitation of God and reclaim the innate human nature created in God's beautiful image. Rūzbihān's theory of...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) In this book, William Rory Dickson explores Sufism as a developing tradition in North America, one that exists in diverse and beguiling forms.

Dickson provides indispensable background on Sufism's relation to Islamic orthodoxy and to...
