Gifts of Islamic Mysticism Maulana Ishaq Bhatti

After the death of the historian of Hadith, Maulana Muhammad Ishaq Bhatti (may Allah have mercy on him), many condolence articles were written in newspapers and magazines, in which his various services were highlighted. 

A few days ago, I happened to see a permanent book on his biography, "Armaghan Maulana Muhammad Ishaq Bhatti," which deeply saddened me after reading because while compiling the biography, the author had put "Apna Aap" instead of the late Bhatti Sahib throughout the book. 

Although "the introduction of any personality is always 100 percent by highlighting every aspect of him." Was it not an injustice to Maulana Muhammad Ishaq Bhatti Sahib (may Allah have mercy on him), and would it not be that if we do his biography and highlight every aspect of his life, we put aside such an aspect or consider it a great sin and remove it from his life, which we have turned our backs on?

If Sufism was such a big sin, then why did the late Bhatti Sahib use the words Kashf, Karaamat, Bay'at, Ilham, Sufism, Murshid, Murid, etc., in all his books, and why did he decorate the entire chapter of these personalities with Sufism? Although Sufism is such a reality that, understanding its importance, the predecessors of the people of Hadith of every era adapted their lives according to it.

 Whenever fair-minded historians and biographers wrote about the life circumstances of these predecessors, they also wrote about their bright aspects, such as sincerity and divinity, love and knowledge, Kashf, Karaamat, Ilham, and Bisharat, so that these events could be a source of freshness in faith and spiritual growth for the followers.
