Annotation: This article examines the philosophical and Sufi dimensions of Makhdumi A‘zam Dahbedi’s doctrine of the Perfect Human (al-Insān al-Kāmil), one of the prominent representatives of the spiritual thought of sixteenth-century Transoxiana. The study analyzes his views on human nature, the relationship between the soul and the nafs, the stages of spiritual perfection, and the social role of the perfect human being. Particular attention is paid to the interconnection between knowledge, practice, sincerity, and spiritual development in his teachings. The research concludes that the concept of the Perfect Human in Makhdumi A‘zam’s thought represents not only a model of individual moral perfection but also an important foundation for social development and spiritual renewal.

Keywords: Makhdumi A‘zam Dahbedi, Perfect Human, Sufism, Naqshbandiyya, spiritual knowledge, soul, nafs, moral perfection, philosophical thought, spirituality.
