The Figure of the Murīd, his Behaviour and Guiding Ethics in the Hermeneutic-Esoteric Tradition of Abū ‘Abd ar-Raḥmān b. al-Ḥusayn as-Sulamī (d. 413/1021)
The scope of the current research is to analyse the speculative reason of Abū ‘Abd al-Rahmān as-Sulamī (325/937 – 413/1021) through the examination of his two main hermeneutic-esoteric (at-ta’wīl) works. Precisely, the study will highlight to what extent the elaboration and complete acquisition of the allusive notions cited in these texts have laid the foundation for his cognitive process leading him to the development of explicit behavioural and ethical guidelines as illustrated in his thematic oeuvre.
