Abstract

Man is a witness to the beautiful creation of Allah Ta'ala. The mysticism of creation and its access to self-righteousness is inherent in its nature. How to determine this goal of enlightenment and how to guide it, one starts thinking with birth. Every person in every nation of the world must look into his heart and think like this because his inner man demands him to do so. Every country of the world, every nation, and every person of every religion must come to such a time that he turns to his real Lord and expresses it in his own language. Such ideas are being expressed in every nation and every religion of every country. Orientalists and critics of Sufism insist that Sufism did not begin during the Prophet's Prophethood, but it had already entered human thought. The first description of Sufism is found in the Upanishads.  According to Abu Rehan al-Baruni, such a concern is found in every nation and every religion. The theory of the unity of self is based on this. There is no need for any religion or creed, but every person of every nation can achieve closeness to God through constant remembrance because the basis of the religion of spirituality is obtained by renouncing all worldly and all kinds of worldly relations. In this article, a research evaluation of these beliefs has been taken that all religions of the world have had the theory of Sufism, and the source of Islamic Sufism is also the Sufism of ancient religions or the beginning of Islamic Sufism is the spirit of the Prophet (May Allah Bless and Peace Be Upon Him) from life.
