%0 Journal Article %T The idea of tashabbuh in sufi communities and literature of the late 6th/12th and early 7th/13th century in Baghdad %A Salamah-Qudsi %A Arin Shawkat %J Al-Qantara : Revista de Estudios Arabes %D 2011 %I Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cient¨ªficas %X The aim of this paper is to focus attention on the role of the mutashabbih within the active life of rib¨¡ in sixth/twelfth and early seventh/thirteenth century Sufism of late Abbasid Baghdad with its basic source being Ab¨± af al-Suhraward¨©¡äs Aw¨¡rif al-ma ¨¡rif. Other concepts and groups are also analyzed such as qalandariyya, maj h¨±bs, takalluf, which is the semblance of ecstasy during sam¨¡ , and the ambiguous status of kh¨¡dim. The broad category kh¨¡dim, according to al-Suhraward¨© seems to have included types of affiliation and function in Sufi collective life that went beyond the specific position of the kh¨¡dim as a senior disciple of a particular Sheik . The infinitive form khidma would probably have implied categories ranging from a transitory affiliation motivated by some expenditure on the Sufis, through a more robust one in which the same title might designate those who occasionally visited resident Sufis and participated in one or more of their rituals, and on to actual residence of such ¡°servants¡± in the rib¨¡ . Al-Suhraward¨© tashabbuhtheory is based on the essential purpose of creating a popular Sufi system open to one and all, with an inherent dynamic that leads ultimately to the rank of Sheik-hood (mashyakha). Este art¨ªculo pretende analizar el papel del muta abbih en la vida activa del rib¨¡ en el sufismo del per¨ªodo tard¨ªo de los Abbas¨ªes de Bagdad (finales del siglo VI/XII y principios del siglo VII/XIII). Su fuente principal es el Aw¨¡rif al-ma ¨¡rif de Ab¨± af al-Suhraward¨©. Tambi¨¦n se analizan otros conceptos y grupos, como la qalandariyya, los ma ¨±bs, el takalluf (la apariencia de ¨¦xtasis durante el sam¨¡ , adem¨¢s del estatus ambiguo del j¨¡dim. La amplia categoria de j¨¡dim seg¨²n al-Suhraward¨© parece haber incluido clases de afiliaci¨®n y funci¨®n en la vida colectiva suf¨ª que iban m¨¢s all¨¢ de la posici¨®n espec¨ªfica del j¨¡dim como un disc¨ªpulo veterano de un jeque concreto. La forma jidma probablemente inclu¨ªa categor¨ªas que iban desde una afiliaci¨®n transitoria motivada por alg¨²n pago a los suf¨ªes, pasando por una m¨¢s s¨®lida en la que el mismo t¨ªtulo podr¨ªa designar a los que de forma ocasional visitaban a los residentes suf¨ªes y participaban en uno o m¨¢s de sus rituales, hasta implicar una residencia real de tales ¡°siervos¡± en el rib¨¡ . La teor¨ªa de al-Suhraward¨© sobre el ta abbuh tiene el prop¨®sito fundamental de crear un sistema popular suf¨ª abierto a todos, con una din¨¢mica inherente que en ¨²ltima instancia pod¨ªa permitir alcanzar el rango de jeque (ma yaja). %K Mutashabbih %K rukh a %K rib¨¡ %K kh¨¡dim %K qalandariyya %K sam¨¡ %K takalluf %K Muta habbih %K ruj a %K rib¨¡ %K j¨¡dim %K qalandariyya %K sam¨¡ %K takalluf %U http://al-qantara.revistas.csic.es/index.php/al-qantara/article/view/253/247
