Sufis (and Ahmaddiya) always seem to end up on the short end of the Salafists’ persecution stick.

Their shrines are torched, their adherents bumped off etc.

Salafists view Sufis as “idolators” and Ahmaddiya as outright heretics or blasphemers.

Sufis (and Ahmadiyya) view Salafists as straight from the bowels of Hell itself; a Sufi friend of mine called them “’....agents of the Devil.’” An Ahmaddiya friend had a much less charitable view.

In the entire Islamic fold, the Sufis and the Ahmaddiya have my sympathies. They are actively persecuted. And there is a profound difference between their respective theological interpretations and the rest of Islam.

ahmaddiyas believe in a prophet after Mo, hence they are the worse kind of heretics, along with Bahai's. Strangely enough they are the ones who first started looking for converts in the west

Sufis seem peaceful and ARE peaceful compared to Wahabbis, but they're still more violent than the average non-Moslem.
