by Leonard Chrysostomos Epafras

  • First published:
  • 21st century

Description

Description from Zenodo (opens in a new tab)

The dissertation that follows is a study of an interaction between the Jews and Muslims in medieval Islām, particularly in Egypt. Their interaction was in the area of spirituality in which the Jews absorbed some aspects of Ṣūfīsm and incorporated them into their spiritual system. The aim of this religious and cultural gesture was an ethical improvement and Jewish spiritual renewal. In this regard, the religious phenomenon may tentatively be called “Jewish Ṣūfīsm.”
