Is there in Sufism: a praised Sufism and a condemned Sufism?

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, you mentioned (may Allah preserve you) that Shaykh Ibn Khafif was a Sufi, and that he was a moderate Sufi. The question is: Does Sufism divide into a praised Sufism and a condemned Sufism, or was that in the past?

Answer:
Sufism now has nothing in it that is praised. I told you this, but perhaps the questioner was not present. I tell you that the principles of Sufism, even though it is a religious innovation (bid'ah), its people are people of worship and asceticism, and they did not enter into the extravagances that came later. So, even though they are people of worship and asceticism, their method is not pleasing, not pleasing. But after that, Sufism developed and disbelief, shirk (associating partners with Allah), and polytheism entered it, until their affair ended in the unity of existence.
And their affair ended in them dropping the obligations from those who advanced in Sufism, so he becomes a close friend of Allah (wali) who does not need to pray, or fast, or do good deeds, and nothing is forbidden to him.
Their affair reached this point, and indeed it reached something more hideous than this, which is the claim of the unity of existence. Yes.
