This document is a preface to a special issue of the journal "Religions" that focuses on Sufism in the modern world. It discusses the challenges faced by Sufism in the modern age and its historical development. The text explores the criticism and opposition faced by Sufism from various groups, including Islamic fundamentalists, secular thinkers, and European colonial powers. Despite these challenges, Sufism has remained an important part of Muslim life and culture, inspiring Muslims through poetry, literature, and spirituality. The document also highlights the growing field of research on the presence of Sufism in the Euro-American sphere and provides an overview of the articles included in the special issue. The articles cover topics such as the intersection of Sufism and yoga, the evolution of Bektashi doctrines in Albania, the presence of Sufism in Euro-American spaces, and the aesthetic aspect of Sufism in contemporary art. The contributors approach Sufism through disciplines such as religious studies, sociology, anthropology, and gender studies, highlighting the dynamic nature of mystical Islam in the modern era. The articles provide a multidisciplinary perspective on Sufism and emphasize the need to understand it in its cultural and historical context. [Extracted from the article] |
