Translated from seventeen languages by more than two dozen scholars of Islamic studies, these texts come from the Middle East, North and sub-Saharan Africa, Central and South Asia, and China and Southeast Asia. Historically, they begin with the eighth century and include samples from medieval, early modern, and modern Muslim societies. Expertly edited and introduced by John Renard, Tales of God's Friends serves as a companion volume to Renard's Friends of God: Islamic Images of Piety, Commitment, and Servanthood." -- Book cover. 650 0 $a Muslim saints $v Biography. 650 0 $a Sufis $v Biography. 650 0 $a Islamic literature $v Translations into English. 700 1 $a Renard, John, $d 1944- 941 $a 2 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718085326.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160824024951.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=692288F856D911DFB46C8AF9A7D7520A 994 $a 02 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
