Published: July 25, 2018, 5:01 p.m.

No doubt there is much doubt and confusion surrounding the practice of sufism (tasawwuf). Some of this confusion stems from a number of foreign ideas and practises that have crept into sufism such as "spiritual mentors" or "pirs" abusing their positions and the introduction of certain popular non-religious practises as crowd attractors. Reading from the work of the great Egyptian Maliki scholar of the 18th century, Imam Dardir, a master in the sciences of Aqida, Mufti Abdur Rahman very simply and convincingly explains what sufism is supposed to be, and provides detailed guidelines for traversing the spiritual path to Allah Most High.
