- Nasir Khusraw’s turning point could be described as a midlife crisis. He was a senior bureaucrat in Central Asia, enjoying a life of travel and socialising. But a more urgent current ran under the delights of the world, namely his aching desire to have some purpose, some answer to the question of why all this exists. A powerful dream shocked him out of his ‘forty years’ sleep’, and he became convinced that he must change his life completely, and use this truth to change the world.
Dr Alice Hunsberger, an expert on the 11th century sage, scholar and traveller, joins us on this first episode of #MuslimFootprints to talk about #NasirKhusraw’s marvellous journey - a literal journey, from the ancient city of Marv to the Mediterranean via #Jerusalem and Jeddah, as well as a spiritual one - in search of meaning.
