ABSTRACT 
In this article, sciences belonging to the category of Sufi studies are classified 
according to their characteristics. The author also classifies the sciences of Sufism, 
which have not yet formed or are in the process of formation, gives a special 
emphasis on "Comparative Sufi Studies". According to the author, the first elements 
of Comparative Sufi Studies can be found in the works of Eastern thinkers of the 10 
th-11th centuries.
 
The author of the article concludes that "Comparative Sufi Studies" in the 
study of the history and philosophy of Sufism, both a methodology and an 
independent science of Sufism, serves to reveal the true meaning of this teaching.
