| Abstract

Ṣunʿallāh Kūzakunānī (d. 929/1523) was a Naqshbandī Ṣūfī shaykh born near Tabriz and trained in Herat, Khurāsān. He was instrumental in disseminating the ṭarīqa (order) to western Iran and, through his spiritual progeny, to Anatolia (the Naqshbandiyya, whose eponymous founder, Bahāʾ al-Dīn Naqshband, died in Bukhārā in 791/1389, is now widespread). Educated in Tabriz, Kūzakunānī sought spiritual training in Herat, where he joined the circle of the scholar and poet ʿAbd al-Raḥmān Jāmī (d. 898/1492) and was initiated into the Naqshbandiyya by ʿAlāʾ al-Dīn
