"The volume is systematic and cross-referential, and therefore fully deserves its place in Brill’s ‘Handbook of Oriental Studies’ series. Each chapter offers extensive bibliographies that also include the newest titles on regions not directly covered here, as for instance Eastern Turkestan (Xinjiang). The volume’s methodological agenda – prioritizing source studies across conventional borders for accentuating the importance of Sufi sources for social history – easily links up with studies on Sufism elsewhere in the world." - Michael Kemper, University of Amsterdam, in: Islam and Christian–Muslim Relations 30/2 (2019)
