To: alt.magick.tyagi,alt.religion.gnostic,alt.sufi,alt.islam.sufism,alt.religion.islam,alt.islam,uk.religion.islam From: tyagi@houseofkaos.abyss.com (nagasiva) Subject: YahyaM: Sufi Adam Date: 23 Dec 1997 21:26:18 -0800 [from tariqas@world.std.com: Yahya M] [quoting haramullah] << Sufism first existed in the region of Mecca, a city in West Saudi Arabia if one identifies Muhammad as the first Sufi. if one goes back to Judeochristian patriarchs then it depends on which one takes as the 'first' and could be quite difficult to locate depending on where 'Adam' might be thought to have existed. >> When Sayyidna Adam, `alayhi al-salam, first came to this world, he alighted in Sri Lanka. After that, he went to Mecca. He was the first to worship Allah at the future site of the Ka`bah. The Black Stone was there in the time of Adam, but then it was fresh from Heaven, and it was still white and luminous. That is what the old legends say.
