Recenzii
A welcome, much-needed, and expert contribution toward understanding the actual religious lives of practicing Muslims, their roots in the Qur'an and wider Islamic tradition, and the pervasive if often unappreciated influence of Sufism. The book is strongly recommended to those working in spirituality or teaching an introduction to Islam.
Saritoprak has produced a work that effectively navigates the boundaries of a post-orientalist world and acts as a useful introduction to Islam and spirituality. This text, given its simplistic structure and content, can provide use for almost any reader that is intrigued by Islam, mysticism, and spirituality without the marring of orientalist perspectives that plague most extant works on the subject . The text would serve a reader pursuing leisure but also contains useful information for a beginning student of Islamic spirituality.
Zeki Saritoprak has written a splendid introduction to Islamic spirituality. This book is required reading for those who wish to know more about the religious lives of Muslims, or those who wish a deeper insight into spiritual practices.
The strength of this book is that it brings spirituality into a new light by discussing how it can be practiced in the modern world without the idea of detachment, a traditional Sufi idea.
This is a very intriguing collection of topics on Islamic spirituality, and an excellent addition to the Islamic studies literature.
