Sufism
David Bradly (DB):
Do you believe in Sufism as part of Islam ? If so or not, why ?
Rahman :
Sufism is NOT PART
of ISLAM becuase, like Anti Hadeeth, it is NOT BASED
DB : Very good. Now, how do you explain this :
Abu Hanifah : If not for 2 years I spent (studying with the SHIA Jafar as-sadiq about GNOSTICIISM), I would have PERISHED : (hashiyat radd al-muhtar ala al-durr al-mukhtar)
Ahmad ibn Hamball : When someone told him about those enjoying ecstasy with MUSIC , he said 'will you PREVENT THEM FROM ENJOYING AN HOUR WITH ALLAH' : (Ghida al-albab li sharh manzumat al-adab)
So all these 2 are follower and permitter of tasawwuf. They are also not Muslim then according to your reasoning. That's okay, I never expected watermelon-haram Ibn Hamball to be Muslim anyhow !
