Tasowwuf in a Nutshell

Q: Can you explain tasowwuf in a nutshell?

A: Tasowwuf is basically the method of cleansing oneself from lowly and debase qualities, and adorning oneself with good and noble character. There is nothing beyond this in tasowwuf. To achieve this, the Mashaaikh or Spiritual Guides of Tasowwuf will prescribe different forms of zhikr, mediation, and acts of worship. The most important of all prescriptions in tasowwuf is adherence to the sunnah. One cannot achieve moral reformation and regeneration by flouting Shariah or perpetrating acts of bid’ah.
