<小特集 南アジア・イスラーム文献の出版・伝播2>アキール文庫スーフィズム関連コレクション［A1304-1309, A1403, B003, B801-804, B901-902］

Abstract

Among the books on Sufism in the Aqeel Collection, books on Chishtis or Naqshbandis from Pre-Modern times to the beginning of the early 20th century are the most prominent. The collection includes some important tazkiras and biographical works on modern Sufis too. Persian and Arabic works of Walī Allāh and research works on him conprise a separate section. There are rare Persian texts such as the Lahore Edition of Fawā’id al-Fu’ād, a malfūzāt of Nizām al-Dīn Awliyā’ and Kulliyāt-i Bāqī Bi-llāh, as well as Urdu texts like Ḥadīqat al-Awliyā by Ghulām Sarwar Lāhawrī written in the latter half of the 19th century. It should be noted though that most books of the Sufism Collection are rightly categorized in sections related to Sufism or Tazkira, while some books are mixed in with sections such as ‘Modern Thinkers’ or ‘Local History’.
