Islamic art is considered as sacred in Islamic civilisation and culture, and derives its sanctity from the Quran as the fountain from which it has emanated, which Muslims consider to be the Word of God, much like Christ is the Word of God in Christianity. The Quran has played a formative role in shaping the trinity of sacred Islamic art which is Quranic recitation, calligraphy and architecture. However, another approach which not only is viable but can be considered of great importance to the study of Islamic art, is the employment and utilisation of principles of Islamic philosophy and Sufism which were the pillars of the intellectual milieu in which a given work of art is produced. The application of such principles allows a more comprehensive and detailed interpretation of a work of art. In this paper, the primary Islamic philosophy and sufi doctrines that will be discussed are the concepts of imagination, colour, and calligraphy and examples of their application in the khānqāh and shrine ensemble of Shaykh Ṣafi al-Din Ardabīlī in Ardabil, Iran.</abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru">В западном академическом дискурсе принято рассматривать исламское искусство через призму истории искусства и социологии искусства. Исламское искусство воспринимается как сакральное для исламской культуры и цивилизации. Его священность выводится из Корана, эманируя из него, как из фонтана. Из Корана, который мусульмане считают Словом Божьим, подобно тому, как в христианстве Христос есть божественное Слово. Коран стал формообразующим фактором в возникновении триады сакрального исламского искусства: рецитация Корана, каллиграфия и архитектура. Однако возможен и другой подход, который не только жизнеспособен, но и может иметь большое значение для изучения исламского искусства. Этот подход заключается в том, чтобы задействовать принципы исламской философии и суфизма, которые легли в основание исследуемого предмета искусства. В данной статье мы рассмотрим концепции воображения, света и каллиграфии как учения, имеющие принципиальное значение для ислама и суфизма, а также приведем примеры их использования в ханак е и архитектурном ансамбле мавзолея Шейха Сафи ад-Дина Ардабили (Ардебиль, Иран).</trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Islamic art</kwd><kwd>philosophy</kwd><kwd>Sufism</kwd><kwd>Quran</kwd><kwd>imagination</kwd><kwd>colour</kwd><kwd>calligraphy</kwd><kwd>Shaykh Ṣafi al-Din Ardabīlī’s shrine ensemble</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Исламское искусство</kwd><kwd>философия</kwd><kwd>суфизм</kwd><kwd>Коран</kwd><kwd>воображение</kwd><kwd>цвет</kwd><kwd>каллиграфия</kwd><kwd>архитектурный ансамбль мавзолея Шейха Сафи ад-Дина Ардабили</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Ibn Sīnā.
