seems like you took the bolded part too strongly since you have put all your effort to prove that wrong. I must admit that that was a poor choice of words on my side.
see there is no question about Rumi’s greatness and I think we are saying the same thing but differently. Now read the underlined part in that same post. I wanted to draw a fine line there between the so called religious scholars and these Great sufis. Those “scholars/Mullahs” have a very narrow-minded view of non-muslims and they even divide muslims to so many sects (sunnis, shias, brelvis, wahabis bla bla bla) there is no peace in their world, everything has to be the way they want it because they are on the right path. On the other hand these sufis unite us all human beings as one, having one purpose in this world and all (Tawheed, higher consciousness, eternal love etc).
Thats all I wanted to say there. Now the popular way is to have that scholarly/Mullah’s Islam and at the same time looking at sufism with drunk eyes like “He was the greatest sufi of all time yeah thats so good but we cant have it, sufis are sent from God for a special purpose we cant be like them”. For me I like that line between mullahs and sufis. you can choose, tag or mix them but for me its a difference between destruction and Peace. And I think this has been the point of this whole discussion.
