This is a highly readable yet spiritually profound account of the author's own progress on the Sufi Path -the Path of Spiritual Islam. He takes us on a journey from his first encounter with Sufism as an ordinary Muslim through his years as a murid or spiritual novice under the guidance of his Shaikh to his initiation as a Rufai Dervish and beyond.

Muhyiddin Shakoor's account is full of humour often moving and always resonant with the wisdom of the Sufi tradition.
