Mysticism / Sufism, it may be underscored, is an integral part
of all religions. As a rule, mystical way of life, helps us to
purge off all animal passions and makes our heart vibrant
with the remembrance of God. Sufi / mystic, in brief, can be
characterized as a God-intoxicated man as his thoughts and
deeds are meant exclusively to seek the pleasure / blessings of
God Almighty. It may be emphasized that in Islam a genuine
Sufi / mystic cannot proclaim to have received a new form of
knowledge (as it would run counter to our fundamental faith in
the finality of the prophecy and prophet-hood); however, he
can legitimately proclaim to have attained a new level of
understanding whereby he can appreciate the inner secrets
and verities of religion. This delicate point, we wish to
observe, should not be lost sight of in our readings of the
works of great mystics of Islam or for that reason great
mystics of any other religion. This article is meant to highlight
the same point.
