520 |a Sufi becoming is conditioned on finding a master who could take one through the spiritual journey for attaining Ultimate Truth. In contrast, Islamic reformism since the late eighteenth century calls for the significance of establishing a direct and autonomous relationship to God and denies the roles of charismatic authority who could mediate between Him and a Muslim. This paper examines how Egyptian Sufi theorists tackled the issue of individualised faith and personal connection to their masters by looking at the conversion narrative of ‘Abd al-Halim Mahmud (1910-1978), the French-educated Egyptian scholar of Sufism. He vividly depicted in his work the encounters with the Shadhili masters, whether in person or in ru’ya (dream-like vision), and demonstrated his firm connection to them. In spite of publicly disclosing his Sufi becoming, he managed to gain the status of a Sufi celebrity by performing the selfless Self who aspires to gain access to transcendental reality.
