Sufism contra Shari'ah?

-
Is Sufism against Shari'ah: T here is a difference of opinion among scholars of Islam regarding origin of the root word Sufi as the word Sufi was not known till the third century AH.  After quoting various opinion scholars say that it is derived from Suf (woolen garment) some say that, it is extracted from the word 'Safa' (cleaning of impurity). The first Sufi group arose in Basra (Iraq) and the founders of the first Khanqah (Sufi Seminary) were the students of Abdul Wahid bin Zayd, who was a disciple of the famous Hasan Basri.  Sufism and Tasawwuf as a term were coined in later years but words such as Tazkia and Ahsan appear in the Qur'an and Hadith respectively.  The word Tazkia which means to purify oneself appear several times in the Quran. For example: Our Lord, and send among them a messenger from themselves who will recite to them Your verses and teach them the Book and wisdom and purify (tazkia) them .

Of a fact, the Mujaddid was to become the chief propounder of the Khawaja’s spiritual order in India and to renovate the spiritual climate then obtaining in the country by bringing the then liberal mystic thoughts and practices within the orthodox confines of the Shari’ah.

                         im age credit: TOI Sultan -ul- Masha'ikh Khawaja Nizamuddin Awliya:- T he gifts and talents of Khawaja Nizamuddin were perhaps expressed most concisely as well as meaningfully, by his spiritual guide Khawaja Farid Uddin Ganjshakar while conferring his viceregency upon him. He had said: "God has bestowed upon you the gifts of knowledge, intellect and his love; and anyone combining these qualities is best suited to discharge the responsibility of a vicegerent." Having attained the state of peaceful contentment, the Khawaja was always careful that all those disciples who were chosen by him to keep alight the lamp of his mystic order, expelled the liking for wealth and dignity from their hearts. Once Fasihuddin, a disciple, asked: "Who deserves to become the vicegerent of a spiritual teacher?" replied the Khawaja "One who is not at all keen to become a vicegerent." Daily Routine of ...
