Women of Sufism by Camille Adams Helminski

Women of Sufism by Camille Adams Helminski

The Sufi tradition is usually presented through Rumi, Ibn Arabi and Attar. Helminski spent years assembling the women — teachers, poets and saints who were central at the time and dropped out of the record afterwards.

Rabia al-Adawiyya of Basra, who asked God to withhold paradise if she worshipped for its sake. Fatima of Nishapur, whom Bayazid called the one true woman on the path. Aisha al-Ba'uniyya, the most prolific woman writer in Arabic before the twentieth century. Alongside them are contemporary voices from across the Muslim world.

The standard anthology of women's writing in the Sufi tradition, from the eighth century to the present.
