This scientific article explores the general definition and significance of the “perfect man”in the history of Naqshbandism. The concept of "Insan al-Kamil" is of great importance in the philosophy of mysticism, especially in the tradition of Naqshbandism. The article analyzes the definition of a perfect person and his inner and outer qualities by Naqshbandi scholars and spiritual leaders. The connection of the perfect person with such basic characteristics as spiritual purification, ihlos, self-regulation and devotion to God is discussed. It is also considered the role of the perfect person in serving others as a spiritual companion, and his role as a model for moral behavior and proximity to the divine. The understanding of the perfect person in the context of the teachings and practices of mysticism offers an important approach to understanding the spiritual progress of a person and the path to inner perfection.
