‘Sufism means drawing nearer to Allah through knowledge and action. Thus, the Sufi is the one drawn near.’ – Imam Zafar Uthmani from the book Sufim & Good Character translated by Shaykh Faraz Rabbani.
The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) said:
“Allah has sent down both the disease and the cure, and He has appointed a cure for every disease, so treat yourselves medically, but use nothing unlawful.”
The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) said:
“He who is killed while protecting his property is a martyr, and he who is killed while defending his family, or his blood, or his religion is a martyr.”
