Sufism a cult? PLEASE OPEN THIS AND HELP.

RI_RS —

This is research for my essay, so pleeeeeeeeeeeease contribute your thoughts/opinions WHATEVER it is. 

Do you think there's any aspect of sufism that there could be considered cultlike? 

Any over emphasis on authority etc for example? 

This IS a process, for anyone who answers (I hope a few of you will) I then want to run a checklist by you and ask if you think those things apply to sufism. Itll only be yes/no so it won't take you but a few minutes. 

I repeat... PLEEEEEEEEEEASE help me. & please be honest! I need both sides.

you can get cars made of wood aswell, im talking about what cars are mostly made of, and theirs a big difference between cars and human being

 

a table can also be made of wood or metal but this has no link to human being

 

a water cannot turn into  clay nor can a fire turn into a electric light bulb or a light bulb into clay

we are not talking about manmade creation here but the creation fo allah and allah has revealed muhamamd saw is clay not light or fire and iblis is fire and jibrail as is light, jibrail as cannot be fire or clay or it wont be a angel as this is how allah has chosen thigns

 

surely you ahve the brains to not compare allah's way of creating things with human, especially when he revealed it already
