Cet article traite du mysticisme musulman tel qu'il est pratique au Bengale. Les Pirs sont souvent decrits comme des saints Soufis, jouissent d'une grande autorite spirituelle et ont contribue fortement au syncretisme de l'Islam en Asie du Sud. L'emigration vers la Grande-Bretagne a longtemps ete un quasi-monopole de la region de Sylhet, au nord-ouest du Bangladesh. L'A. etablit un parallele entre ce phenomene de migration et la culture du miracle associee aux Pirs, le voyage etant cense etre l'equivalent de la transformation spirituelle d'un pelerin
