While living in Cairo in 1990, Sedgwick encountered Sufis from both the Naqshbandiyya tariqa and the Traditionalist Maryamiyya. However, he did not join either group. He started research on Traditionalism in 1996.

Sedgwick’s earliest research was on Sufism in the Arab and Muslim world. He is best known for his work on Sufism and Traditionalism, especially for his Against the Modern World: Traditionalism and the Secret Intellectual History of the Twentieth Century (2004) . He is also known for his work on terrorism, especially for his 2004 article “Al-Qaeda and the nature of religious terrorism” in which he argues for understanding the terrorism of Al-Qaeda should be understood in political rather than religious terms. He is a critic of the concept of radicalisation, which he argues is a “source of confusion.” Despite his association with the European Society for the Study of Western Esotericism, he has argued that understanding Western esotericism as distinctly Western may no longer be appropriate.
