The Rites of the Sufis in the Ensane- Kamel "Perfect Man"

At the beginning, the Sufism was merely a moral and pious movement but this intellectual trend gradually changed into a great organization with many rites and devices. The great men of this school in their opinion tried to prevent the deviation of this trend trough writing books to explain its rites and educate the Sufi novices, as well. They have numerated some rites for much of their actions insofar as these many rites have influenced the definition of Sufism and they have said," Sufism means the observation of these rites". The present paper tries to investigate the rites of Sufis according to the standpoint of 'Aziz al – din Nasafi, the author of the book " Ensaue- Kamel ".
