Sufi

Sufism, also known as Islamic mysticism, is a spiritual tradition within Islam focused on the inner, personal experience of God. Sufis seek to achieve spiritual closeness and love for the divine through practices like meditation, poetry, music, and prayer. They emphasize virtues such as compassion, humility, and self-awareness, aiming to transcend the material world and connect deeply with God's essence. Sufism is diverse, with various orders and teachings, but all share the goal of fostering inner purification and a direct, heartfelt relationship with the divine.
