"Tasawwuf is an acronym made up of the four consonant letters: t, s, w, and f.
't'- stands for tawbah, repentance
's'- stands for safa, purity, peace and joy
'w'- stands for wilayah, the sanctity of the lovers and friends of Allah
'f'- stands for fana, the annihilation of self into the nothingness.
--- from ‘The Secret of Secrets’ by Hadhrat Abdul Qadir Jilani (raa)"
