Tribute By Non-Muslims
American cultural anthropologist Katherine Pratt Ewing visited Darul Ehsan in 1977 for her research study and wrote a tribute to ali: "The presence of a living representative of the sufi traditions, who possesses all attributes of the original sufi pirs further reinforces the position that the pirs were not mysterious, magical figures of the mystical past, but were pious men. They performed for their era what living sufis can do today for ours."

Famous quotes containing the word tribute:
“His meter was bitter, and ironic and spectacular and inviting: so was life. There wasn’t much other life during those times than to what his pen paid the tribute of poetic tragic glamour and offered the reconciliation of the familiarities of tragedy.”
—Zelda Fitzgerald (1900–1948)
