The Goal is Tawhid, the perfect union with Allah (the God of the Hebrew Bible). The Prophet Muhammad is also revered as a god because of his achievement in this pursuit.

Sufis, like many other groups, have been the object of abuse and even terrorism around the world. All this and more... Support us on Patreon or you can get our merch at Spreadshop .
