Body enraptured the lips of Shah Hussayn. 5. Body revived the heart of Hajji Imdadullah. Conclusion Corporeality and sacred power in Islam. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Islam is often described as abstract ascetic and uniquely disengaged from the human body. The author refutes this assertion in the first full study of Islamic mysticism as it relates to the human body. Examining Sufi conceptions of the body in religious writings from the late fifteenth through the nineteenth centuries AD the author demonstrates that literature from this era often treated saints physical bodies as sites of sacred power. Sufis and Saints Bodies focuses on six important saints from Sufi communities in North Africa and South Asia. The author singles out a specific part of the body to which each saint is frequently associated in religious literature. The saints bodies the author argues are treated as symbolic resources for generating religious meaning communal solidarity and the experience of sacred power. In each chapter the author features a particular theoretical problem drawing methodologically from religious studies anthropology studies of gender and sexuality theology feminism and philosophy. Bringing a new perspective to Islamic studies the author shows how an important Islamic tradition integrated myriad understandings of the body in its nurturing role in the material social and spiritual realms. 346 pp.…

The path through her dark hair: hesitating Muslims and the Hindi lyric/Shantanu Phukan. Glossary. Index. The religious ideal of ecstasy is central to the cross-fertilization between Hinduism and Islam in South Asia. That is the basic theme of this volume, which explores how mysticism associated with rapture, ecstasy, eroticism, longing, and suffering were the human emotions which held the key to knowing the divine in both Hinduism and Islam. The performing arts (such as dance, music, poetry or the abstract concept of performativity) offer a potent lens to examine ecstasy and the ecstatic body. By foregrounding the performing body in religious devotion, the essays in this volume reorient the discourse of the body as it emerged in scholarly disciplines such as anthropology and sociology. The essays draw from new theoretical research into the nature and importance of performance in imagining the cultural and religious life of South Asia. From a South Asia perspective, these essays enhance the engagement of performance studies with the intellectual ideal of embodiment. One common thread that ties together these essays is the linked concepts of sringara-rasa (erotic emotion) and bhakti (loving devotion). All of them draw from new theoretical research into the nature and importance of the body through evidence drawn from architecture, painting, drama, poetry, qawwali singing, dance, yoga, and religious texts.(jacket).…
