The Shrine And Cult Of Muin Al Din Chishti Of Ajmer ( P. M. Currie) : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive (original) (raw)

Shaykh Mu‘in al-din Chishti was one of the most revered mystics of the Indian subcontinent in the thirteenth century. His tomb in Rajasthan is a centre of pilgrimage even today. This book defines the role of Sufi mystics in Islam, and places Shaykh Muin al-din in a historical context, disentangling the Mu‘in of history from the legendary creation of later chronicles. The author traces the reasons behind the rise of the legend and why it assumed the form it did. He also describes the history of the shrine, and the customs and hierarchy of attendants that have grown up around it in the last five hundred years.
