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.

It draws on selected case studies ranging from classic Sufism to Sufism in the contemporary era mainly taken from biographical and hagiographical data, manuscript texts and treatises. In this way, it provides a revisionist approach to theories and methods on Sufism, and, more broadly, the category of mysticism"-- |
