Focusing on the development of Persian Sufism, this book delves into the ethic of futuwwat, an Iranian code of honor. It highlights key virtues such as selflessness, loyalty, humility, generosity, courage, and bravery, illustrating how these principles serve as practical philosophies for daily life rather than merely abstract metaphysical concepts.
