View all books by Shivan (University of St Andrews MahendrarajahDescription of The Sufi Saint of Jam
Spanning 900 years of history, this book explores the genesis, florescence, degeneration, and regeneration of the 'saint cult' and shrine-complex of Shaykh al-Islam Ahmad-i Jam. Cult and shrine fell into decline under Iran's first Shi'i shahs, but are enjoying a renaissance under the Ayatollahs despite being an adamantly Sunni institution.
