As salaamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu
Dear respected brother in Islam
Sufism is an integral part of shariah. It is a way of attaining the recognition of Allah Ta'ala and gaining His proximity. That can be achieved only by stictly adhering to the laws of shariah as shown to us by our beloved prophet Mohammad (sallalahu alaihi wa sallam) Any act contrary to shariah, for example music etc. can never be part of sufism.
And Allah Ta'ala knows best

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Iftaa Mahmudiyyah (AskImam). It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
