Perceiving The Intangible: Introspective & Meditational Practices In Moroccan Sufism, Anna Gray Morales
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
Sufism has earned an exponentially prominent role within Morocco’s political and social arenas through recent decades. The Moroccan monarchy’s endorsement of the religious variant and its prevalence in pop-cultural events, national journalism, and literature are a few indicators of its growing influence.
