True love and adherence to the Ahl Al-Bayt has nothing to do with Rafidi Shi’ism.
Likewise has Tazkiyyat an-Nafs (Purifying the Self/Soul/Heart) and Zuhd nothing to do with the Zanaadiqah (heretics) among the Sufis of today and the past who like to deceive gullible muslims …
with beautiful terms like ‘Tazkiyah/Tarbiyah/Zuhd” etc. One of the Sufi tactics is to show some great classical scholars of Islam praising TRUE ‘Sufism’ i.e. Zuhd/purification of the self etc. then claiming to be on the same as those Salaf. Here an overview about about TRUE Spiritualism and its followers and the Zandaqah (heresy) of the Sufis and their followers:
Ibn Taymiyyah رحمه الله divides the Sufis into three categories
The first category of sufis lived their lives and experiences conformed with the shari’ah (mustaqim al-ahwal) [Majmu Fatawa Shaykh al-Islam, vol. 10, pp. 516-7].
The second category consists of those sufis whose experience of fana and intoxication (sukr) weakened their sense of discrimination, and made them utter words that they later realized to be erroneous when they became sober [Majmu Fatawa Shaykh al-Islam, vol. 10, pp. 220-1].
The third category of sufis who have believed in ideas and expounded doctrines which contradict Islamic principles [ wihdatul woojood and Al-hulool {incarnation}, or who have indulged in practices which are condemned by the shari'ah.
The third category of Sufis which includes two sub-categories, regardless of their tareeqah, worship others than Allah, such as Prophets and “awliya’” [“saints”], living or dead. They say, “Yaa Jeelaani”, “Yaa Rifaa’i” [calling on their awliya’], or “O Messenger of Allah, help and save” or “O Messenger of Allah, our dependence is on you”, etc.
Also, they believe in wahdat al-wujood (unity of existence). They do not have the idea of a Creator and His creation, instead they say that everything is creation and everything is God [ Hinduism, pantheism, etc].
They unscrupulously claim that they take knowledge directly from Allah, without the mediation of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). They say, “Haddathani qalbi ‘an Rabbi (My heart told me from my Lord).”
Sufism Practised today is third form of Sufism.
