Tauhid dalam Perspektif Tasawuf
Abstract: This paper is aimed
at articulating the Sufi concept of tawhid, God unity. Tawhid has always been
an intriguing issue to tackle within the premises of tasawuf considering that
it is this notion that has triggered controversies over centuries. The Sufis have
often been accused of betraying Islam by presenting a distorted version of
tawhid. This paper will neutralize this accusation and contend that the
Sufistic concept of tawhid is categorically Islamic, Qur’anic and prophetic.
Against all odds, tasawuf has survived from all sorts of onslaught. This means
that tasawuf is just in line with the prophetic Islam, or else with the pure of
Islam brought about the prophet Muhammad. The paper will consult the views of
many leading Sufis to support its basic contention. The strength of this paper
does not indeed lie in its basic premises, but in its data, line of argument
and in its analysis. The paper will leave aside for the time being the views of
the Sufis that belong to the periphery.
