520 A social, political and religious history of Sufism in
Medieval Egypt. After the fall of the Fatimid Empire in
1171 and the emergence of a new Sunni polity under the
Ayyubids, Sufism came to extraordinary prominence in
Egypt. The state founded and funded hospices to attract
foreign Sufis to Egypt; local charismatic Sufi masters
appeared throughout Upper and Lower Egypt; organised Sufi
brotherhoods emerged in the urban centres of Cairo and
Alexandria; and even Jews took up the doctrines and
practices of the Sufis. By the middle of the Mamluk period
in the 14th century, Sufism had become massively popular.
How and why did this popularisation happen? This book is
the first to address this issue directly, surveying the
social formation and histories of several different Sufi
collectivities from this period. Arguing that the
popularisation of Sufism during this time was the direct
result of deliberate and variegated Sufi programs of
outreach, strategies of legitimation and performances of
authority across Egypt, these programs, strategies and
performances are situated within the social and political
contexts of the institutionalisation of Sufism, audience
participation, and Ayyubid and Mamluk state policies. Key
Features. Offers a wide-ranging description of the
variegated social landscape of Sufism in Ayyubid and early
Mamluk Egypt Presents a new theoretical model to describe
the institutionalisation and popularisation of Sufism Case
studies of three different groups of Sufis in medieval
Egypt track this institutionalisation and popularisation A
heuristic framework connects Sufism to larger social and
political trends in medieval Egypt
