Martin Lings provides an excellent and authoritative introduction to the mystical movement of the Sufis based on his lifelong interest in Islamic culture. His explanation derives from a profound understanding of Sufism, and extends to many aspects which are usually neglected. His illuminating answer to 'What is Sufism?' gives a taste of the very subject matter itself. What do Sufis believe? What do they aim at? What do they do? Unlike other writers on the subject, Martin Lings treats all the three questions with equal justice. He is thus able to give a wealth of answers to the main question 'What is Sufism?', each answer being from a different angle but all going to the root of the matter. A reviewer wrote 'Should the book appear in paperback, I would use it for undergraduate and graduate courses on Islamic civilization', and in fact What is Sufism? has become a set book in colleges and universities on both sides of the Atlantic. It is now accepted as the authoritative statement on the subject of Sufism and it has been translated into French, German, Italian and Spanish. It has also been published in Sarajevo in Bosnian, and is available in Braille.… (más)

> QU'EST-CE QUE LE SOUFISME, par Martin Lings, Le Seuil, Paris 1977. — Le petit ouvrage de Martin Lings, Qu’est-ce que le soufisme, est une excellente introduction à cette manière de vivre. Sans tomber dans la simplification outrancière (rien de moins simple que l’Islam), il trace clairement les grandes voies et éclaire les points délicats des doctrines. Sans doute, cela reste-t-il extérieur. C’est que, comme toutes formes mystiques, seule la pratique individuelle peut aider à la vraie compréhension, d’autant plus délicate ici que le soufisme se définit comme une "saveur", mot vague entre tous pour notre esprit occidental. Voilà un ouvrage destiné à l’esprit dont il suscitera la curiosité.

This book was quite valuable for my World Religions class project about Sufism. I cannot think my friend enough for lending me this book. It is not your average non-fiction book. This is a beautifully written book, that compiled rich information in an accessible manner. the writing style is SO BEAUTIFUL. I have consulted Titus Burckhardt's 'Introduction to Sufi Doctrine', and although his book is quite rich with information and methodical; yet the style isn't as 'magical' as Lings'.
I highly recommend this for anyone interested in the subject of Mysticism, and Sufism. This is an introductory decent dose of Sufism. I say 'introductory', but I don't mean 'simple and shallow'; no the book is quite deep.
Enjoy!
Will definitely reread it later. At times, reading it felt like a prayer, just the right book for my taste :) ( )

The title of this book is a question; and that question, as far as the Western world is concerned, has been given some dubious and suspect answers in recent years.
