Sufism is a mystical school of thought within Islam that is considered to be very peaceful and tolerant. Sufism is based on the idea that it is possible to gain an intimate knowledge of God. In the Sufi tradition, a teacher is more important than a book, and a personal experience is more important than intellectual understanding. Sufism is based on a word of praise and glorification of God. Sufis believe that there are many ways to reach God indirectly and that the orthodox dogmatism of the Islamic schools prevents Sufi thought from being expressed. In India, Sufism was spread by Muslim saints who came from Persia and Turkey.
