The Sufi Saint of Jam: History, Religion, and Politics of a Sunni Shrine in Shi'i Iran - Cambridge Studies in Islamic Civilization
Mahendrarajah, Shivan (University of St Andrews, Scotland)
Spanning 900 years of history, this book explores the genesis, florescence, degeneration, and regeneration of the 'saint cult' and shrine-complex of Shaykh al-Islam Ahmad-i Jam. Cult and shrine fell into decline under Iran's first Shi?i shahs, but are enjoying a renaissance under the Ayatollahs despite being an adamantly Sunni institution.
