Mar 9, 2013 at 15:55 comment added Najeeb @Ehsan, closeness to Allah comes only through following the Commandments of Allah as conveyed and practiced by the Messenger (SAWS) and his Companions (RAA). Sufism has little to do with Islam and should rather be considered an offshoot that has a base from Islam & takes off in a different direction. In pure Islam, there is NO method to come close to Allah but the Messenger has conveyed it to us. Saying that one can follow one's own methodology for this is the equivalent of accusing Allah & His Messenger, in that they both "forgot" to give some knowledge to us & these Sufis are doing that now.
Feb 6, 2013 at 19:11 comment added Ehsan @Ansari: You cannot reject that there are schools within Islam that follow the mystical path. Of course there are schools which consider the mystical schools as outside of Islam; none the less they are commonly considered within the category of Islam. And the question was as to what the terminology of drunk and sober means within the Islamic mystical school.
