Here, as elsewhere, many of the Muslims are Sufis. This book focuses mainly on issues of inculturation or contextualization of Sufism in the West. It shows that, while more traditional forms of Sufism exist, many radical changes have taken place in this part of the world. For instance, in some groups there are female sheikhs and a far-reaching pluralistic attitude to other religions. Hence Sufism is sometimes seen as something that transcends the boundaries of Islam. 606 $aSufism$zEurope 606 $aSufism$zNorth America 615 0$aSufism 615 0$aSufism 676 $a297.4/09182/1 686 $a11.83$2bcl 701 $aWesterlund$b David$0246190 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910828309003321 996 $aSufism in Europe and North America$94100754 997 $aUNINA
