Question by Daniel Dawning: Do Sunni, Shiites and Ismaelis all have Sufi mystics, or is Sufism connected to a specific sect?

What sect of Islam was the poet Rumi, or Nasrudin, or Al Hallaj. (I must admit, those are the only three Sufi names I know from their writings)

There are no sects in Islam. Creating and altering the religion would not make them Muslims because they do not follow the Quran or Prophet Muhammed PBUH.

Prophet PBUH was not Shia or Sunni, he was A MUSLIM.

God hates those who divide the religion:

“As for those who divide their religion and break up into sects, you have no part in them in the least: their affair is with Allah: He will in the end tell them the truth of all that they did.” (Quran, 6:159)

Being a believer in Islam, you must declare that there is no God but God and Muhammed SAW is his messenger.

“…and be not amongst those who join gods with Allah and those who split up their Religion, and become sects – each party rejoicing in that which is with itself.” (Quran, 30:31-32)
