Sufism: An Inquiry

Sufism: An Inquiry, the world’s longest running journal on Sufism, was first published in 1987 with over 60 print volumes and currently available in a beautiful online format. Since its inception, the journal has included articles on human rights, scientific inquiries, new translations of classic works of Sufi literature and poetry, the stories of Sufi saints previously unavailable in English, and articles and essays by leading Sufi masters, poets, psychologists on human development and the spiritual path. It features editorial content by Dr. Nahid Angha and Dr. Ali Kianfar, and also incorporates relevant reports and essays from the works of many Sufi schools, the United Nations and interfaith organizations.

Sufism: An Inquiry continues to explore the cultural gifts of world religions diversely embodied around the planet and provides insight into a wide variety of effective practices for spiritual development.

“In the Universe, the history of the journey from eternity to eternity, the destiny
and the mystery of each being, is wrapped within the being itself.”
