520 # # |a This book is an academic discussion and appreciation of art works in Malaysia believed to possess elements of Sufism. There are contemporary artists in Malaysia who tend to express the ideology of Sufism as part of the content of their art works. However, these expressions were not realised by viewers because Sufism is an extremely abstract knowledge that goes beyond the images or motifs represented by artists in their works of art. The beauty of the knowledge of Sufism, which is the highest order of Islamic thoughts, should be shared with the public. This would lead to the appreciation of Sufism and the knowledge therein.
