In
this article, the issue of Sufism in South Asia, which is the most populous
region of the Islamic world, is being concisely investigated. The region of
South Asia constitutes in general a significant part of the Islamic culture and
traditions, mainly because of its Sufi organizations, the relevant Sufi
culture, and its inclusion of Adam’s Peak [Mountain of Sarandib] which is
believed to have the footprint of the prophet Adam.
