| Σύνοψη: | Introduction -- 1. 'Introduction' to Sufism -- 2. The Journey Through Islam: a phenomenological analysis of the Sufi tariqa and the experience of the 'master' -- 3. 'Being Sufi' -- 4. Jesus as Sign -- 5. Absent Christ, present God -- 6. Break with the past: transgressing restrictions of the category and scholarship on 'mysticism' -- 7. Conclusion: The ontological question for Sufism -- Index. "This book explores how Sufis approach their faith as Muslims, upholding an Islamic worldview, but going about making sense of their religion through the world in which they exist, often in unexpected ways.
