This project seeks to understand contemporary Sufism in the United States by examining the Mustafawiyya tariqah, a Sufi community in South Carolina. To do so, I demonstrate how Sufism in the United States is a living practice that links Islam in America to traditionally defined Islamic lands, institutions, and practices. In harmony with Sherman Jacksons idea of the Third Resurrection as defined in his book, Islam and the Blackamerican: Looking Toward a Third Resurrection; I demonstrate that by practicing Sufism within Sunni tradition, via a Senegalese Sufi sheikh, the members are appropriating Sunni Sufi Islamic tradition and fitting it with their particular circumstance and culture.
