Best books to learn Sufism, in order

Sufism is the mystical and inward dimension of Islam, and reading its poetry without its grounding invites misunderstanding, so a good path begins with context. Start with a clear introduction to Sufi history, practice, and its place within Islam, then read the great teachers and poets such as Rumi and Attar with that frame in hand, so the verse is received as a spiritual path rather than decoration.
