{"product_id":"the-sufis","title":"The Sufis","description":"What is Sufism?\u003cbr\u003eThe book follows the Sufi principle of ‘scatter’ in answering this unanswerable question.\u003cbr\u003eIt deliberately shies away from offering an ordered definition.\u003cbr\u003eInstead, it throws out ideas.\u003cbr\u003eLike fragments of light on dust particles, they reveal the shape of something intangible.\u003cbr\u003eNeither emotionalist nor academic, this book offers the closest thing a written work can to an experience of Sufism.\u003cbr\u003eWhen it came out in 1964 it was incredibly influential, attracting admirers such as Robert Graves (who wrote the introduction), Ted Hughes and Doris Lessing.\u003cbr\u003eIt’s the most important modern book written on Sufism.\u003cbr\u003eA must-read for any serious student of Sufi thought.","brand":"Bookshop Staging","offers":[{"title":"Wardah Books","offer_id":42427203190862,"sku":"9781784790035","price":32.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/3857\/4926\/files\/26491787.jpg?v=1746674332","url":"https:\/\/bookshop.lol\/products\/the-sufis","provider":"bookshop.lol","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
