Ahmad Zarruq Qawaid-al-Tasawwuf Sufi Literature Shadhiliyah North African Sufism
The erudite North African Ahmad Zarruq (d. 899/1493) authored the Qawaid al-Tasawwuf. This landmark of Sufi literature imparts Sufi ideology and ritual in a distinctive aphoristic style designed to appeal to the highly educated reader. The work is concisely structured, using terse language that reveals the writer’s familiarity with a wide array of Islamic sciences. My essay proposes to investigate the style and sources of the Qawaid in order to understand its nature and methodology, and to identify its proper place in the literature of Sufism.
