Since a few years some studies have dealt with the relationships between Sufis and Nāth Yogīs, seen from the Sufi side. This paper focuses on the Nāth perspective and on their dialogue with Islam, to the point that even the existence of Muslim Yogīs is reported. On these Muslim Yogīs we have scarce data, hence the interest of a curious text recently published by the Nāth Yogīs as a chapter of a book on their tradition, and entitled Mohammad bodh: it is prescribed that this text has to be recited during the Ramadan by theMuslim Yogīs. Probably a compilation of older passages, it attests to a strong influence of Kabīr and contains many interesting formulas regarding the translation of Nāth and Islamic religious concepts. Another testimony of the dialogue between Nāth Yogīs and Islam can be seen in the group of legends surrounding the three related figures of Gogā, Ratannāth and Kāyānāth. Their complex link to Islam is based on their territorial location and expresses itself in their parallel position facing the Muslim political power
