Abstract

Founded in 2006 by Shaykh Muḥammad Fawzī al-Karkarī as a new branch of the Shādhiliyya, the Karkariyya have grown as an international Sufi order that is distinguished by their multi-colored patchwork robes called the muraqqaʿa and their publication of video testimonials describing experience during spiritual retreats (khalwa). This article examines these practices using ethnographic and textual sources to demonstrate how they are situated within a curriculum of ethical education (minhāj al-tarbiya) aimed at the cultivation of virtuous piety (iḥsān). I show that this ethical education is integral to a program of learning to see (tanwīr) that culminates in visionary experiences (mushāhadāt) and analyze the conceptual dimensions of those visions. In demonstrating the link between tarbiya and tanwīr in the minhāj of the Karkariyya I aim to consider Sufism as a practical ethical tradition linked to philosophical ethics (akhlāq) and proper conduct and comportment (adab).
愿景和美德:ṭarīqa Karkariyya
由Shaykh Mu于2006年创立ḥammad Fawzīal-Karkarī作为Shādhiliyya的一个新分支,Karkariyya已经发展成为一个国际苏菲秩序,其特点是他们的多色拼接长袍被称为mu拉卡ʿa,并发布了描述精神静修期间经历的视频证明(khalwa)。本文使用民族志和文本来源来研究这些做法,以证明它们是如何被置于旨在培养道德虔诚的道德教育课程(minhāj al-tarbiya)中的(iḥsān)。我表明,这种道德教育是学习看(tanwīr)计划的组成部分,该计划以富有远见的体验(mushāhadāt)为高潮,并分析这些愿景的概念维度。在Karkariyya的minhāj中,为了证明tarbiya和tanwīr之间的联系,我旨在将苏菲主义视为一种与哲学伦理(akhlāq)和适当行为和举止(adab)相关的实践伦理传统。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Sufi Studies furnishes an international scholarly forum for research on Sufism. Taking an expansive view of the subject, the journal brings together all disciplinary perspectives. It publishes peer-reviewed articles and book reviews on the historical, cultural, social, philosophical, political, anthropological, literary, artistic and other aspects of Sufism in all times and places. By promoting an understanding of the richly variegated Sufi tradition in both thought and practice and in its cultural and social contexts, the Journal of Sufi Studies makes a distinctive contribution to current scholarship on Sufism and its integration into the broader field of Islamic studies.
