Q:

Which one of the following statements is not correct?

 

A) Al-Biruni identifies the Sufidoctrine of divine love as selfannihilation with parallel passages from Bhagavad Gita. B) According to Al-Biruni, Sufitheories of Soul were similar to those in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra.
C) The Hatha Yogic treatise Amrita Kunda had lasting impact on Sufism. D) Hujwiri’s conversation with the Yogis shows that he was impressed with their theory of the division of the human body.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Hujwiri’s conversation with the Yogis shows that he was impressed with their theory of the division of the human body.

Explanation:

According to al-Biruni, the sufi theories of the soul were similar to those in Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra. Like the Yoga Sutra, sufi works also stated that ‘the bodies are the snares of the souls for the purpose of acquiring recompense’. Al-Biruni also identifies the sufi doctrine of divine love as self-annihilation with parallel passages from the Bhagavad Gita. There was also much exchange of ideas between the Sufis and Indian yogis. In fact the hatha-yoga treatise Amrita Kunda was translated into Arabic and Persian, So C is right.

Hujwiri was known as Datta Ganj Baksh. Hujwiri comments that before he settled in Lahore some sufis believed in theories that he calls brahmanical. According to Hujwiri they wrongly believed that ‘annihilation (fand’) signifies loss of essence and destruction of the personality, and that subsistence (baqa) indicates the subsistence of God in man.
