ʿIlm al-Taṣawwuf is the knowledge of the inner dimensions of Islām,
comprising the purification of the soul, the rectification of the heart,
and the cultivation of the praiseworthy qualities that Allāh and His
Messenger ﷺ have commended. It encompasses the knowledge of sincerity,
reliance upon Allāh, gratitude, patience, and the diseases of the heart
and their remedies. This science has been carried by the scholars of
Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamāʿah across every generation and stands firmly within
the boundaries of the Qurʾān and the Sunnah.
