Book Description
Professor Nicholson examines the life, work and teaching of three of the most important of the early Súfís. These great mystics were almost legendary figures whose tombs became holy shrines. Súfism, as Professor Nicholson suggests, lies at the heart both of the religious philosophy and the popular religion of Islam.
