The tradition describes how the believer may draw close to God and gain His love by performing supererogatory works, to such an extent that her organs become divine. The article discusses the significance of the nawāfil tradition in various mystical writings composed in the formative and classical periods of Islamic mysticism (third-seventh/ninth-thirteenth centuries), with special attention given to the writings of the influential mystic Muḥyĩ l-Dĩn Ibn al-Arabĩ (d. 638/1240). The article likewise attempts to demonstrate the relevance of certain Shii conceptions to the understanding of hadĩth al-nawāfil and its interpretations in Sunni mysticism. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Journal of the American Oriental Society is the property of American Society for Premodern Asia (ASPA) and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
