Series Statement:
Routledge Sufi series
Content:
Both in everyday language and religious metaphor, the heart often embodies the true self and is considered to be the seat of emotion in many cultures. Many Muslim thinkers have attempted to clarify the nature of Sufism using its metaphorical image, particularly in the tenth and eleventh centuries.This book examines the work of Ab? T?lib al-Makk? and his wider significance within the Sufi tradition, with a focus on the role of the heart. Analysing his most significant work, Q?t al-qul?b ('The Nourishment of Hearts'), the author goes beyond an examination of the themes of the bo.
