Statements of the People of Knowledge Regarding the Soofeeyah
Author: Abbas Abu Yahya
Translator: Abbas Abu Yahya
Description: Abbas Abu Yahya critiques the beliefs and practices of the Sufis (Soofeeyah) from the perspective of classical Islamic scholars. The book draws on the works of figures like Ibn Taymiyyah, Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah, and others to argue that certain Sufi practices, such as dancing, whistling, and clapping in the name of worship, deviate from traditional Islamic teachings. The scholars emphasize the importance of adhering to the Qur'an and Sunnah while condemning practices seen as innovations (Bid'ah) in Sufism, asserting that these actions are misguided and spiritually harmful.
