الششتري و عقيدة التصوف من خلال قصيدته : "أتيناك بالفقر يا ذا الغنى"

Abstract EN

Sufis have always been a symbol of peace; spreading love, tolerance and forgiveness, while rejecting extremism, violence and hatred, which is all evident to any scholar of Sufism, and anyone who has ever accompanied Sufis and followed their lifestyle.

In this paper, I am honored to be writing about a Sufi imam of great reputation and popular known as Sheikh ALShushtari, may his soul rest in peace.

I have chosen of his divan, the famous poem (We bring you poverty, O rich), as an example to showcase the beliefs of Sufis.

This paper is in two parts: firstly, a study of the poet`s life history, and secondly, analysis of the vocabulary of the poem, noting the Sufi themes, and an overview of Sufism.
