"The Kashf al-mahjúb: The Oldest Persian Treatise on Súfiism" by Hujviri is a foundational text on Sufism written in the 11th century. This treatise serves not only as a manual on Sufism but also as a personal meditation on the mystical path and its practices, detailing the doctrines and experiences of Sufis.
