Al-Risala al-Qushayriyya fi 'Ilm al-Tasawwuf (Arabic: الرسالة القشيرية في علم التصوف, 'Al-Qushayri's Epistle on Sufism'), commonly known as al-Risala al-Qushayriyya, is an eleventh-century (written in 1046) Arabic manual of Sufism written by the Shafi'i–Ash'ari scholar and Sufi master Abu al-Qasim al-Qushayri (d. 465 AH / 1072 CE). The work was written during a period of Ash'ari–Mu'tazili sectarian conflict in Nishapur under early Seljuk rule, and attempts to vindicate Sufism as a legitimate 'Islamic science,' fully compatible with Sunni Islam. The epistle is unique among texts of its period for combining Islamic hagiography and the 'Sufi handbook' genre into a single condensed work. It has become the most widely disseminated handbook of Sufism in the Islamic world, has been translated into English, French, German, Farsi, Turkish, and Urdu, and remains a foundational work in the study of Islamic mysticism.
