Conventionally the word "sufi" is considered synonymous with the word "mystic". But the word "sufi", as used in Arabic, Persian, Turkish and Urdu, has a religious connotation. The sufis claim to have inherited their (doctrines direct from the teachings of the holy Prophet, who, strictly speaking, has given no dogmatic or mystical theology. The classical Sufism of the early Brotherhoods was strong on simple, straightforward faith in Islamic theology, personal devotion to God and trust (taivakkul) in Him under all conditions, personal loyalty to the Prophet of Islam and allegiance to the Qur'an and the Slmri'at. The faith was accompanied by the practice of a well-controlled ascetic life and in many cases meant renunciation of the world. Then followed the Khanqah stage and concentration, between A.D. 1100 and 1400, on the creation of the Silsilah-Tariqah system, its organization, its rules of conduct and the writings of handbooks both on esoteric doctrine and on the Sufi path. During its historical development it gathered elements and characteristics from the intellectual and cultural climate of the region concerned which transformed it into a bourgeois and later a mass movement of wide acceptance.
