Examining the character of Junayd as both an architect of the Sufi mainstream as well as a charismatic and pragmatic personality, the book explores Junayd’s sophisticated relationships within Sufi circles as well as the broader circle of Islamic piety. Besides constructing a balanced portrait of Junayd, this monograph also examines Junayd’s legacy in order to flesh out some of the socio-religious and historical settings of that period. This book is an important read for scholars of religion, Islamic studies, mediaeval Muslim culture, as well as historians and researchers in the field of Islamic studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal; background: white;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222; mso-fareast-language: #1000;\"\u003e  Arin Salamah\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: #1000;\"\u003e-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222; mso-fareast-language: #1000;\"\u003eQudsi is associate Professor of Arabic and Islamic studies at the Department of Arabic Language and Literature, University of Haifa. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: #1000;\"\u003eShe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222; mso-fareast-language: #1000;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222; mso-fareast-language: #1000;\"\u003eis particularly interested in medieval Islam, religious and esoteric thought, Islamic theology and classical Arabic prose.
