Description
This groundbreaking work by Cambridge University Press offers the first serious material and architectural analysis of Ismaili-Shia esotericism spanning 1200-1500 AD. The book establishes concrete connections between Sufism and Shi'ism through historical sources, metaphysical study, and archaeological evidence, moving beyond decades of speculation. Drawing on monuments derived from lodges established by Pir Shams, the author examines how the Suhrawardi Order developed unique built environments across the Indus region. The study integrates pre-modern concepts of religious plurality reflected in rituals and astrology, providing scholars and students with essential insight into how religious communities physically manifested their beliefs through architecture and material culture during the medieval period.
