Abstract :

The evident aspect of the Sufi consideration is the belief in evolution; although there is a background for this beliefin other mystic systems, but the way it is explained by Sufis is different. Sufism has based its system on the Islamic learnings. It has mixed its theories with those of Islam in a way that they don't interfere. Certain samples of this could be observed in Mov lana' s work: I died as a mineral and became a plant. I died as plant and rose to animal. NajmRazi also believes humans could reach at truth only if they seek the way of re ligion.
