Hussein ibn Mansur al- Hallaj[hOOsAn´ ibn mAnsoor´] Pronunciation Key, 857–922, Arabic-speaking Persian Muslim mystic and poet popularly known among Muslims as "the martyr of mystical love." Born a Sunni, he traveled in Persia, India, and Turkistan, and experimented with a number of religious philosophies, including Sufism, Manichaeism, and Buddhism.
Though released shortly thereafter, his enemies succeeded in re-opening the case against him, and he was tortured and executed.

 The Roots of Sufism
This is truer of other Sufis like Mansoor al Hallaj, who died for claiming, ‘I am the Truth’, affirmed an initial difference between the two, which is never fully transcended, not even in the state of liberation.[xxxii ] Jalaludin Rumi, on the other hand, seems to affirm an actual unification.
Even the Sufis, like Mansoor al Hallaj and Ba Yazid, who do not use the love language of the later Sufis, report in detail their dialogue with God.

 Who was al-Hallaaj? - Islam Q&A   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
Al-Hallaaj was al-Husayn ibn Mansoor al-Hallaaj, who was known as Abu Mugheeth, or Abu ‘Abd-Allaah.
The one who strove to have him executed and who held a council in which he ruled that he deserved to be executed was al-Qaadi Abu ‘Umar Muhammad ibn Yoosuf al-Maaliki (may Allaah have mercy on him).
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: “Whoever believes what al-Hallaaj believed in and agrees with the ideas for which al-Hallaaj was executed, is a kaafir and an apostate, according to the consensus of the Muslims.

Al Hallaj was one of the earliest Sufi masters, he lead his life as a dervish wanderer, he would often go into trans where he felt one with all the creation, existence, with God.
Hallaj was a mushrik who rejected Tawheed and claimed exactly what Fer'awn (Pheroah of Moses) claimed and was therefore worthy of hell and eternal damnation.
Hallaj was cused by Imam Al Mahdi and Khomeini was should not have followed his path.

 Early Islamic Mystics (Contd...)
Despite the dramatic power, the ecstatic utterances of Abu Yazid al Bistami are overshadowed by those of the most famous of the Baghdad mystics, Husayn ibn Mansoor al-Hallaj.
The creativity of Hallaj's work is reflected most strikingly in his ingenious use of science of opposites.
In his Kitab al-tawasin al Hallaj describes his two role models as Iblis (the devil) and Pharaoh.

Al Hamdulilah that Allah has given us the Guidance of the Quran and the Sunnah (way or path) of Muhammad, peace be upon him.
Al-Hallaj's biographer Louis Massignon, in describing his ideas of mystical ontology, wrote that, for Al-Hallaj, divine union is consummated in "the amorous nuptial in which the Creator ultimately rejoins his creature...and in which the latter opens his heart to his Beloved in intimate, familiar" discourse.
However, the fact remains that their cardinal doctrines are not far from the Christian doctrine of incarnation, promoted by Mansoor el-Hallaj, one of the infamous Sufi leaders, who was crucified for claiming identity with God.

Bhaloo - seriously, go and ask a sufi what their current interpretation of wahdat al wujud is. If you can stand to be in their presence of course.
Anyways I don't want to wander off from the original topic (a common tactic of sufis) Wahdat al wujud is one of the major issue I have issue with, and it is the reason Muslims should stay away from these later day sufis.

Actually his real name was Hussain, but his fathers name was Mansoor Hallaj, Hussain him self was not a “hallaj” (cotton carder) by profession.
He never said I am Allah or I Mansoor al-hallaj am the whole truth, and people found this offensive, they knew he was saying this and which verse he was reaading, but they had suspicion that he was claiming to be Allah and so on, so they had him killed.
Sufism in general and Al Halaj in particular are not that much complicated to not know them.

 Sufism_1   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
Sufism reached its most organized form by the end of the third century after the Hijrah (which occurred in 623 AD), when one of the well-known and infamous Sufi teachers, Al'Husayn ibn Mansoor Al-'Hallaj, announced his most deviant and un-Islamic beliefs.
As for Persia, Abu Sa'id Al Mayhani was instrumental in spreading Sufism, as he established a special order for Sufis, which he called "Al-Khanat", which served as Sufi social clubs.
Later on, other Sufis adopted this practice of establishing their own Khanat, and hence the Sufi Turuqh --pl. for Tariqhah, each of which is considered a distinct Sufi school of thought-- started to appear in the fourth century after Hijrah, especially in Egypt, Iraq and Morocco.

Rather his line of arguing suggests that he has a gross misperception of what Tasawwuf is or is trying to force foreign ideas of his own imagination onto Tasawwuf.
He continues by slandering a controversial figure in Tasawwuf, Abu Mansoor al-Hallaj presenting him without mentioning that he was opposed by some Sufis while vindicated by some scholars.

Whereby going to the extremes of calling themselves Allah such as Mansoor Al Hallaj (may Allah's curse be upon him) Sufism is certainly the most destructive force which is sweeping Muslims who are ignorant of the true Islamic Aqeedah.
I come from one of those nations where the Islamic culture is steeped in saint veneration, consultation of jinns, and all forms of superstition.

However, neither Chary nor the two panellists nor the anchor nor the audience knew enough -- or had the courage -- to remind Engineer that although thought to be a face of Islam, Sufism is not recognised in Islam.
