First Sentence

Sufism, Tasawwuf, which is the esoteric or inward (batin) aspect of Islam, is to be distinguished from exoteric or "external" (zahir) Islam just as direct contemplation of spiritual or divine realities is distinguishable from the fulfulling of the laws which translate them in the individual order in connection with the conditions of a particular phase of humanity.
