Because...
It is our, the Sufis', wish that people may take their approach toward the “Religion of Islam” and evaluate it by love, not hatred; by knowledge and comprehending the truth and wisdom in it, not with ignorance or imitation (taqlid)... Therefore, we are considered deviated by some.
It is our hope that mosques may be freed from being frightening places of scholastic, illogical, unreasonable, nonsense talks; and rather become meeting spots for people of tolerance to come together to share knowledge and wisdom. By gathering like a “ball of love” in those places we hope they may share the worry of their neighbors and fellow friends and also become happy with their happinesses. Temples should indeed be places where people find peace with the prayers, Zhikr, meditation and deep thought about ALLAH.
Let such places be equipped with computers and bookcases rather than being decorated with showy carpets and chandeliers...
Let the mosques be centers that are modest, plain, unimposing, but that they may open new horizons for people and provide them with useful information. So, the “Religion of Islam” is made easy to understand and to practice rightfully through the effect of true realization (tahqiq) far from adaptive imitation (taqlid).
Those holy places should not be used for political or economic interests. Therefore, we may be considered deviated by some!..
It is our wish that people's good intentions should not be traded on and their money should not be captured in various ways by convincing that “sins of their deceased relatives will be forgiven” in return. People should not be fooled by imposing some persons as religious mentors!!! who act as authorizations to rule people's practices and sell advice for the sake of money paid to them; but who immediately disappear when their subsistence is cut off.
Neither Ahmed Yasawi nor Jelaluddin Rumi, nor RasulAllah aleyhessalaam who shed light on understanding Islam, have ever accepted any material gain in return for their services for the “Religion of Islam” to be understood. On the contrary, they have spent all their wealth on their path and past away with nothing. Most of their follower Sufis have become generous distributors rather than collectors in the name of “Religion”. Therefore, Sufis may be considered as deviated by some.
The “Religion of Islam” has been communicated and reached out to our day in almost every community with an approach full of love and enlightenment(irfan) given out by the spiritual people of loving heart known as Sufi saints.
Mosques, on the other hand, to say regretfully, are full of those who make every effort to exile people of sympathy that were gained through loving and enlightening approach of spiritual people of loving heart known as Sufis.
