\n\tQuestion:<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAssalamualaikum<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThere is a statement attributed to Imam Shafi'i that he said, "If a person exercised Sufism (Tasawafa) at the beginning of the day, he does not come to Dhuhur except an idiot."<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe same narration is found in Ibn Jawzi's <\/span><\/span>talbees<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/span>iblis<\/span><\/span> and in Imam Bayhaqi's Manaqibush-Shafi'i.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tMy question is regarding the one found in the Manaqibush-Shafi'i. Is it authentic? Is the chain authentic?<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t\u0628\u0650\u0633\u0652\u0645\u0650 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647\u0650 \u0627\u0644\u0631\u0651\u064e\u062d\u0652\u0645\u0646\u0650 \u0627\u0644\u0631\u0651\u064e\u062d\u0650\u064a\u0652\u0645<\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIn the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnswer:<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tThis statement is found in both talb\u012bs ibl\u012bs[1]<\/strong><\/a><\/em> and its poem in d\u012bwan<\/em>al-Im\u0101m al-Sh\u0101f\u02bf\u012b but without any reference to the statement.[2]<\/a><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAs for the one in Im\u0101m Bayhaq\u012b’s ‘Man\u0101qib al-Sh\u0101f\u02bf\u012b’ it is brought with a chain of narration.[3]<\/a> It is as follows:<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tIm\u0101m al-Sh\u0101f\u02bf\u012b->Y\u016bnus ibn \u02bfAbd al-A\u02bfal\u0101 ->Ab\u016b Abdullah al-Husayn->Mu\u1e25ammadJa\u02bffar ibn Mu\u1e25ammad->Ab\u016b\u02bfAbdill\u0101h al-\u1e24afidh (Im\u0101m\u1e24\u0101kim, author of al-Mustadrak).<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe narration is reliable, it is in reference to those \u1e62\u016bf\u012b’s who are not in adherence to the Qur’\u0101n and Sunn\u0101h.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
