Аннотация

This review examines “Sufis and Their Lodges in the Ottoman Ḥijāz”
which is a collection of three Arabic treatises, by Ḥasan b. ‘Alī al-‘Uǧaymī, concerning the Sufi activities in the pre-Wahhābi Hijaz. After presenting an overview of Dumairieh’s illuminating introduction and al-‘Uǧaymīʼs treatises, I tried to discuss how this book, and others in its genre, should be understood and how they could contribute to the field of Sufi studies.
