Passion and emotion have been one of the most important foundations of Sufi behavior; they have reacted to any type of music or musicality to the point that sometimes they have danced to the sound of blacksmiths' hammers or have become so ecstatic upon hearing poetic words that they have screamed, and some have even lost consciousness and some have died. Accordingly, the purpose of this research has been to examine the emotional reactions of Sufis. The research question has been to explain some of the emotional reactions of Sufis in the face of the dominance of ecstasy and to explain the factors affecting emotional and ecstatic behavior. The research method, like most literary studies, is descriptive-analytical, and the data have been collected and studied by studying written and electronic texts.
This research shows that Sufis have had the most emotional reactions to divine attraction, divine entry, good news, fear, love, separation, longing, music, poetry, sarcastic sentences, female singers, beautiful singing, and transition from one position to another. Their reactions are as follows: fainting, screaming, dancing, crying, yelling, tearing the robe, taking off the robe, and passing away. The emotional reaction of dancing is more approved by mystics, only Hajveri has been against Sufi dance. The emotional reaction of tearing clothes is considered the most frequent emotional reaction of Sufis in terms of criticism. Ghazali agrees with tearing clothes, whether involuntarily or voluntarily. Hossein Al-Khwarizmi, Sheikh Saadi, and Maulana Jalaluddin Muhammad Balkhi agree with tearing clothes involuntarily. But there are many opponents of tearing clothes, including: Ibn Jawzi, Hajwiri, Ibrahim Maristani, author of the book Awarif al-Ma'arif and author of the book Manaqib al-Sufiyyah... Emotional reactions, shouting, screaming, crying, and fainting have been reported from religious leaders, even the Companions and Tabi'in, who experienced them while reciting the Quran o
