Sufis are heretics in Islam for the most part who are also related to shiites

depends tasawwuf (spirituality) is part of Islam but many people use it as an open door to innovation and sometimes even disbelief some salafis like to lump all sufis together and throw the bag in the river but this simply deceitful

>>292 Sufis emphasises inner jihad as greater than the outer, for some people it isn't enough to simply fulfil the sharia but to seek spiritual union with Alllah notably through dikhr.

>>292 they're not a seperate denomination from Sunni or Shia but an aspect of those two denominations which is Sufisms foundation

>>458 So there are both Sunni Sufis and Shia Sufis? What's the difference between the two?

>>292 There is no precedence for sufism in Islam, hence, it is technically deviation. They introduce practices not legislated by Allah and His Messenger صلى الله عليه وآله وصحبه وسلم so, anything not found in the religion is rejected and in hell.

>>342 >some salafis like to lump all sufis together and throw the bag in the river but this simply deceitful The problem is that there is absolutely NO sufi tradition in the religion of Islam. Sufis may adopt Islamic practice but the fact is that anyone that claims to be a Sufi is more likely than not a deviant. There is no Muslim in their right mind, striving upon the Qur'an and Sunnah as was understood by the Prophet and the Sahabah, that would say "I am a sufi" because there is no validity in that statement. Sufism as a movement is a deviant movement despite their outward appearance and adherence to some or several Islamic legislated practices. The problem is that most people want a kumbaya version of Islam that pleases everyone , so they open the doors for anyone to claim anything without question, and then those striving for the sake of Allah are demonized because they are preserving to sanctity of the religion.
