What is the ruling on praying in Sufi mosques?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks: Is it permissible to pray in Sufi mosques, and is this prayer to be performed quietly rather than aloud?

Answer:
No. If the Sufis have shirk (associating partners with Allah) that they openly declare in the mosque, and their imam does so, then it is taken as a fact that he has shirk-based innovations. One does not pray behind him, nor does one pray with them. Yes, pray in another place.
