Embracing the World: Rumi and Fethullah Gulen
This new book focuses on Fethullah Gülen’s understanding of Sufism in particular as found in the writings of Rumi, a Sufi thinker and poet who lived in 13th century Turkey, as well as with other earlier thinkers, from Socrates to Ibn ‘Arabi. Soltes demonstrates that, as a practitioner of Sufism, Gülen is in part inspired by legendary mystics like Rumi and Muhammad ibn Ali al-‘Arabi, but offers his own distinctive understanding of mysticism’s role in the world.
