On opposite pages are given Fitzgerald's rendering and what Sufis recognize in it. The Sufi speaking is not always a contemporary with Omar, nor a Persian or Mohammedan. A Sufi is simply a mystic in Mohammedan garb. The Sufi speaking is now and then, though rarely, using phraseology which is Western. |
