Write a brief essay on the Sufis.
What will be an ideal response?
Islam developed a mystical tradition to find deeper spiritual power within its religious teachings and practices. Islamic mystics are Sufis, a word for the woolen garments worn by the first Muslim mystics. Sufis pursue a direct, loving, and ecstatic experience of God, usually to narrow the gap between God and humans. Poetry, music, and dancing are important in this mystical quest.
