The word mysticism is not mentioned in the whole of the Holy Quran ?
Ans: No doubt the word mysticism is not mentioned in the whole of the Holy Quran and even nearly two hundred years after the death of Holy Prophet no Islamic history or any other book on Islam has carried such a word. But in the Holy Quran another word is available at several places whose subject matter is the same as of mysticism. This word is Wisdom. Thus the Holy Quran says:”Even as we have sent among you an apostle from among you who recites to you our communications and purifies you and teaches you the Book and the wisdom and teaches you that which you did not know(Chapter Cow verse 151)”. The same thing is enjoined in Chapter Al-Imran and Album. These verses reveal that the Holy Prophet used to recite the revealed message and teach and train people through illustrations and personal demonstrations.
