That the most truthful speech is that of Allaah’s Book (the Qur’aan) and that the best of guidance is that of Muhammad .
The worst of evils are innovations (foreign to the true teachings of Islam). Every innovated matter (in religion) is a Bid’aa; every Bid’aa is a Dalaalah (misguidance), and every Dalaalah is in the Fire of Hell.
KNOW, may Allaah’s Mercy be upon me and you, that the issue of Soofism may be confusing to some and may be clear
to others. Many have come to know about Soofism as the highest form of “Spiritual Islamic practices.” A kind of rich
tradition, that only the special and very pious can adhere to and practice. Consequently, if Soofism is criticized, they see that as an insult to Islam.
Some, however, consider Soofism as a “Spiritual” path which Muslims and non-Muslims can associate with. The fact, however, is that the reality of Soofism is known only to the few amongst Muslims. This is due, in part, to the very deceptive nature of the propagation of the teachings of Soofism as done by its advocates who present it as a very special way of worship that is linked to the Prophet (S) and his noble companions (may Allah be pleased with them) and those who follow their path in righteousness. Is it, however, the case?
May Allah al-Kareem al-Ghafoor have Mercy on all of us, save and protect us from the all evils, Forgive us our sins, keep us steadfast on His true Deen (as practised by our beloved Prophet SallAllāhu Alaihi wa Sallam, his Companions and the at-Taaba’een), Guide those of us who are Misguided, and unite the Ummah of the Prophet Muhammad SallAllāhu Alaihi wa Sallam, Aameen!
