This book constitutes a comprehensive investigation of the life and teachings of one of the most famous Sufis of the Iranian world. Simnānī spent his early life as a courtier at the Ilkhanid Mongol court and was a cherished companion of the emperor Arghun. After a mystical experience on the battlefield, he turned his back on a life of luxury and became a Sufi. He advanced rapidly in his spiritual quest and soon became one of the most influential Sufi masters in Iran. Working primarily from the most Arabic and Persian manuscripts of Simnānī’s writings, the author has analyzed Simnānī's thinking to show the overall coherence of his world-view and to demonstrate the importance of his ideas to the development of Islamic mysticism. Along with this analysis, the author provides a detailed account of Simnānī's life and times, as well as a systematic description of Simnānī's instructions for Sufi practioners of all levels.

Focuses on the heartland of the Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), the largest Islamic organization in Indonesia, and on the role of ulama (religious leaders), or kiai as they are known in Java, within NU. Based on substantial fieldwork, this study provides an informed glimpse into the intimate relationships among kiai, their role in local and national politics and their leadership of the Islamic community. Argues that the charismatic authority exerted through the leadership of the kiai in Java has limitations in terms of its legitimacy. At the very least it has boundaries that determine areas or circumstances for its legitimate expression. It also argues that the kiai's influence in politics is not as strong as in other domains.

This critical Arabic text edition of Salwat al-ʿārifīn wa-uns al-mushtāqīn, a manual of early Sufism by Abū Khalaf al-Ṭabarī (d. ca. 470/1077), is based on a very old manuscript preserved in Dār al-Kutub al-Miṣrīya of Cairo, Egypt and copied in 459/1067. It is introduced by a detailed analytical study of the author and his work. Salwat al-ʿārifīn forms an integral part of Sufi literature and reflects Islamic developments in Nishapur in northeastern Iran. This crucial Arabic text, published for the first time, is especially valuable because of its great philological accuracy and sound textual tradition. It represents an essential source for the intellectual history of Islam during the middle of the 4th/10th to the middle of the 5th/11th century.

“Nama cewek ente siapa, sih?” tanyaku pada Ucok. “Ami. Nama panjangnya Amirudin,” jawab Ucok. “Panggilan sayang ke dia apa?” “Bunda.” Aku berpikir keras gimana caranya supaya Ami terkesan lagi sama Ucok. “Aku punya ide! Tapi, ini butuh akting yang sedikit natural,” ucapku kepada kedua berhala itu. “Apaan, tuh?” tanya Ampang. “Cara ini biasanya ampuh untuk menarik perhatian cewek,” kataku meyakinkan. “Pake susuk?” celetuk Ampang. “Jangan, pake susuk nggak ngaruh sama mukanya yang di bawah UMR,” jawabku. “INI MAU BANTU APA NGEHINA?!” Ucok terlihat senang. Sebelumnya, kami riset dulu soal Ami. Kuliahnya di mana, rumahnya langganan banjir nggak, apa hobi bapaknya, sama tahun berapa Portugis ke Maluku. Hampir saja rencana kami batal pas Ucok bilang kalau bapaknya Ami seorang anggota. Kami sempat takut, tapi nggak tahunya anggota koperasi. Buku persembahan penerbit MediaKita #MediaKita
