How did the beliefs and practices of Sufi Muslims depart from those of orthodox Muslims?

Expert answer

 

Sufism is a branch of Islam that takes a more mystical and spiritual approach to the religion than orthodox Muslims. Sufis believe that they can achieve a direct connection with God through prayer, meditation, and other spiritual practices. This direct connection allows them to bypass the need for intermediaries such as priests or imams. Sufis also emphasize the importance of personal experience over strict adherence to religious law. This focus on spirituality and personal experience often leads to Sufis being more tolerant of other religions than orthodox Muslims.
