PURPORT
The revealed scripture of the Mohammedans is the Koran. There is one
Mohammedan sampradaya known as the Sufis. The Sufis accept impersonalism,
believing in the oneness of the living entity with the Absolute Truth. Their
supreme slogan is “analahak.” The Sufi sampradaya was certainly derived from
Sankaracarya’s impersonalists.
