40 Sufi Rules of Love

The Forty Rules of Love is written by Elif Shafak, a French born Turkish writer. Elif Shafak is one of the most acknowledged and bravest of the authors and feminist in Turkey.
The Forty Rules of Love, circles back to the 13th century Persian poet and Sufi mystic. Couched in Rumi's philosophy of love, Shafak's book is a novel within a novel. When Ella, a disillusioned 40-year-old American housewife, reads a manuscript about Rumi, she leaves her unfaithful husband to pursue a new and unexpected love.
Sufi is a very different approach to life, to me it is the philosophy of LOVE.

Calling those rules is a little incorrect. To me they are more like laws of love. Rules are something we need to adhere to, while laws (universal ones, like gravity) are something that is there no matter if we want it or not.
The Sufi Rules of Love are the laws of our hearts no matter if we want it to not.
