Mourad KACIMI
Original title: El pensamiento sufí en las Rasā’il Iḫwān al-Ṣafā’
Keywords: Philosophy, Rasā’il Iḫwān al-Ṣafā’, Sufí knowledge.
In this article we highlight the basic fundaments of Sufi discipline in religion and philosophy. Similarly, is shown how was employed this type of knowledge and conceptions in a book as the Encyclopedia of Iḫwān al-Safā’, classed inside the philosophical genre. On the other hand, we emphasize the significance and influence of the philosophical ideas of the Iḫwān al-Safā’ in later prominent Sufi scholars.
The influence of Abū Ṭālib al-Makkī’s (d. 386 H./996 C.e.) Qūt al-qulūb and al-Sulamī’s (d. 412 H./1021 C.e.) Ṭabaqāt al-ṣūfiyya in the development of sufi literature

Original title: La influencia de Qūt al-qulūb de Abū Ṭālib al-Makkī (m. 386 H. /996 e.C.) y Ṭabaqāt al-ṣūfiyya de al-Sulamī (m. 412 H. /1021 e.C.) en el desarrollo de la literatura sufí

Qūt al-qulūb de Abū Ṭālib al-Makkī (m. 386 H./996 e.C.) y Ṭabaqāt al-ṣūfiyya de al-Sulamī (m. 412 H./1021 e.C) son dos obras sufíes que se compusieron en el periodo de transición del ascetismo al misticismo. Tanto sus doctrinas como el modo en que se redactaron influyeron en autores y obras posteriores. Basándome en un programa desarrollado por el proyecto KITAB, analizaré el papel que jugaron ambas obras en el desarrollo de esta literatura en el Oriente y el Occidente islámico.

Knowledge according to sufi thought
Naser Mohamed HRAGA
Original title: El saber según en el pensamiento sufí
Keywords: Farīd al-Dīn al-‘Aṭṭār, Ibn ‘Arabī, Philosophy, Sufí knowledge, al-Ġazālī.
In this work we study knowledge in Sufism. It is the importance of knowledge, analyzing ideas such as the nature of this truth and the degrees of Sufi knowledge. Sufi knowledge is a difficult subject to explain, among other reasons because this theory is a personal experience, and because knowledge allows you to contemplate all the mysterious truths about the divine to the Sufi. The texts of al-Ġazālī, Ibn ‘Arabī, and the mystic poet Farīd al-Dīn al-‘Aṭṭār are provided.
