Özet

Ethics has been a major concern of the various traditions in Islam but, while the ethical con-cerns of Muslim philosophers and theologians have been well covered in academic studies,Sufiethics seems to remain relatively unexplored. This is because of a misunderstandingthat developments in ethics in Islam are to be measured against those of ancient Greece,which excludes Sufitexts from the inquiry. This edited book, which emerged from a set ofpapers read at a conference held at the American University of Beirut in 2019, is one ofthe recently published works in thefield that attempt to explore the relationship betweenethics and Sufism and bring out ethical categories that go beyond those of the Greeks. It con-sists of 25 chapters, arranged in four parts: the early period, the classical period, the late pre-modern period, and the modern and contemporary periods. Since there is not enough spacehere to describe all the contents, selected examples will be examined to show the nature of theinquiries the book sets out
