About the Topic
============
When Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was asked in the presence of companions about Ihsan by Angel Jibril, he answered it very comprehensively, “Ihsan is to worship Allah as if you see Him, for if you don't see Him then truly He sees you.” One's religious belief is considered incomplete without the three dimensions of Islam, Iman and Ihsan. Islam takes care of the outward bodily actions (rituals or ibadah); Iman is the inward belief (faith or aqidah) and Ihsan refers to excellence in conduct and character. A challenge we face today not only in the field of Tasawwuf but faith as a whole is globalisation. People are moving away rapidly from faith. People are leaving faith believing that it is limiting their movement, freedom and productivity. They want to lead a life free from faith as they are unable to understand and realise that Faith liberates man. We live in a world of emptiness. Many people feel a vacuum in their hearts. Is Tasawwuf still relevant then? Can we retweet Sufism or reintroduce Tasawwuf so that people can make their life more meaningful?
