Tablighi Jamaat which is probably the Muslim world's largest mass movement (their annual convention gets a higher attendance of Muslims than the hajj) comes out of the Deobandi perspective and they are certainly infavor of Sufism. Dear Rich and Gilberto,   I think it depends on what kind of Sufism you are talking about. The Deobandi school opposed the kinds Sufism which had built bridges with Hinduism and created the kind of universalism that typified Mughal India. But orders like Naqshabandi they had no problem with.   warmest, Susan   __________________________________________________ You are subscribed to Baha'i Studies as: mailto:archive@mail-archive.com To unsubscribe, send a blank email to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe, use subscribe bahai-st in the message body to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Baha'i Studies is available through the following: Mail - mailto:bahai-st@list.jccc.edu Web - http://list.jccc.edu/read/?forum=bahai-st News - news://list.jccc.edu/bahai-st Public - http://www.escribe.com/religion/bahaist Old Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.net New Public - http://www.mail-archive.com/bahai-st@list.jccc.edu
