Embracing all eras and highlighting the many faces of Sufism, this colle Review: Excellent introduction to the Islamic faith - I love this book! It provides a very laid back and beautiful introduction to Islam, with its use of poetry, anecdotes and humour. Great for beginners to the subject. Each chapter also begins with a nice introduction - nothing too heavy. This book is to be digested slowly - one you would want to read in the comfort of your own bedroom on a gloomy, rainy day, with a warm cup of sweet tea in hand. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't hesitate to say that this book pretty much explains the essence of Islam. The only drawback is that I have some doubts over the authenticity of some of the information quoted in the text, but the message is what really matters anyway, so it didn't bother me that much. All in all, a FANTASTIC read. Now go click 'add to basket' :) Review: Islam explained - This is a lovely introduction to Islam told in much the same way as traditional Sufi books, that being in the way of thought provoking story telling designed to make you think about your actions, the world around you and how you perceive the world you live in. The author is from the Jerrahi Sufi order and the book follows much the same pattern as the story telling method of the late Sheikh of the Jerrahi Sufi order Muzaffer Ozak. The book is very well structured and would seem to be designed for the western audience to read and enjoy. If you wish to have a book that gives you an introduction to Islam then this is an excellent start. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 240,642 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 125 in Sufism 414 in Philosophy of Theology 2,928 in Spirituality (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 253 Reviews | ## Images ![Essential Sufism - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Y77edX2cL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent introduction to the Islamic faith *by S***L on 16 December 2012* I love this book!

After listening to dry Salafi teachings about the life of the prophet, this really helps me stay in touch with who he was! A wonderful resource you can dip into on any page and feel refreshed. ## Frequently Bought Together - Essential Sufism - The Essential Rumi, New Expanded Edition - The Garden of Truth: The Vision and Promise of Sufism, Islam's Mystical Tradition --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://cook.desertcart.com/products/54811350-essential-sufism](https://cook.desertcart.com/products/54811350-essential-sufism) --- *Product available on Desertcart Cook Islands* *Store origin: CK* *Last updated: 2026-10-18*
