Description: This study analyses religious changes in Sufism in South Asia in the modern period. It sets out the detailed workings of three different sufi traditions in Awadh and charts their responses to the growth of the colonial state, as well as to the emergence of Muslim movements of revival and reform and the spread of western education.
