Abstract

The present thesis aims at comparing the elements of Sufism in Elif Shafak{u2019}s The Forty Rules of Love (2009), Leila Aboulela{u2019}s The Kindness of Enemies (2015) and Mohja Kahf{u2019}s The Girl in the Tangerine Scarf (2006) in which characters embrace Muslim Sufism while they are abroad. These three selected novels have been mainly analysed from the Feminist and Postcolonial perspectives, but tracing the elements of Sufism in them has not yet been researched enough. In this comparative and thematic study, Marxism will be resorted to whenever it is needed to explain the socio-political circumstances that led the protagonists in the three novels to leave their countries and eventually to embrace Sufism
