A comparative study of mystic etiquettes in Sohrevardi’s Awarif al-Ma’arif and Kharazmi’s Ershad al-Moridin
Mystic etiquettes are a set of principles and guidance that Sufi elites have established to train novice disciples in their articles and books. Shahab al-Din Sohrevardi –renowned, seventh century mystic- and Kamal al-Din Hossein Kharazmi -renowned, tenth century mystic- were amongst those who have guided novice disciples and explained mysticism etiquettes in Awarif al-Ma’arif and Ershad al-Moridin, respectively. This study investigates the aforementioned etiquettes through a descriptive-analytical approach. For convenience, mystic etiquettes are divided to two main categories of outer and inner aspects. Outer refers to aspects such as fasting, prayer, pernoctation and inner refers to aspects to which disciples ought to attain in order to approach the mere truth. The findings represent that Sohrevardi has explained the outer aspects in Awarif al-Ma’arif in detail, whereas, Kharazmi has mainly looked upon outer aspects.
