[quote]Brother Osmani ,

I have read your posted link .The sum-up of this article is that Sufism has a separate definition than well-known sufism (Wehdautul-Shahood).

Yes , i further read on different articles that traditional scholars viewed  Sufism from different angle.

But this is viewed by human .Why we need to resemble Islam with debatable term.This is my reservation in this regard.

We know only Islam and this is mentioned in Quran :

هُوَ الَّذِي بَعَثَ فِي الْأُمِّيِّينَ رَسُولًا مِّنْهُمْ يَتْلُو عَلَيْهِمْ آيَاتِهِ وَيُزَكِّيهِمْ وَيُعَلِّمُهُمُ الْكِتَابَ وَالْحِكْمَةَ (2:62)

It is He who has sent among the unlettered a Messenger from amongst themselves who rehearses upon them His verses and purifies them and for this he instructs them in shari‘ah and in hikmah. (62:2)

So We need to concentrate on Shariyat and Hikmat in order to bow down to the will of Allah.

To defend Sufism(term) is a not service to Islam and not a real issue since this word had not been  used by Allah and prophet (PBUH).

We should remain very simple and straight in presenting our Islam like it is revealed in Quran .

From last four centuries or so Sufism has different interpretations which is totally against the Touheed.Please read below link :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sufism

There is no concern of SUFISM term with Islam because scholars used this term to define Islam for the people of their time.

Neither Quran discusses this term nor demands us to defend this for the cause of Islam.

I give you an example that on the name of jihad ,Islam is having defame in the world.Now this word is used in Quran , Sayings of Prophet(pbuh) in scores of place and very integral obligation for us.

Now it becomes a religious duty of our religious intelligentsia to defend this concept through correct interpretation.

I do not see such problem in Sufism that compel us to rise a voice.

If you see any problem in this angle , please present it.

May Allah guide us to right path.[/quote]
