The Sufis
created the most
|
|
|
innovative
religious movement.
|
|
|
• |
They reacted
against the arid
|
|
|
teachings of
the ulama and sought
|
|
|
personal
union with Allah through
|
|
|
asceticism,
meditation, songs,
|
|
|
dancing, or
drugs.
|
|
|
• |
Many Sufis
gained reputations as
|
|
|
healers and
miracle workers; others
|
|
made the
movement a central
|
|
|
factor in the
continuing expansion
|
|
|
of Islam.
