Definition of a Sufi..

Once i asked my beloved brother Sarkar Shoaib sb about sufi. What is meant by this word and what are the practical aspects of this word. He replied in the following way.

" Sufi woh insan hota hy jis ka zahir or batin ik or pak ho"

This statement means that a sufi is a person who is what he looks. He is same in his looks, intensions and in his practical life..... The word "sufi" means "saff".... Urdu word meaning clean and tidy......
This is something which is very easy to say but very very diffucult to act upon it, very difficult to stand with ur words.....If we look inside ourself and around us, it is impossible to find such prsonalities who keep their words. Who are same in their practical life as they look. Even we are different in community as we are from inside....
