Abstract

 Patience is one of the basic principles of Sufism, which is widely included in the Quran and hadiths. In Sufi understanding, it is accepted that the basis of patience is to abandon the complaint and complaint to the divine appreciation. Patience is one of the basic levels that must be reached by the Sufis on the way to becoming a perfect human. The early Sufis defined patience according to their spiritual state and graded it as the patience of ones who obey the god and lover of the god. Patience is one of the basic levels that must be reached by the Sufis on the way to becoming a perfect human. The early Sufis defined patience according to their spiritual state and graded it as the patience of the abids and the minstrels. Terms that are important in Sufism such as submission, zuhd, poor, consent, which are related to patience; They are regarded as facilitators of patience. These levels are elements that complement each other in combating the nafs. For Sufis, the reward of patience is forgiveness and eternal happiness. Therefore, it is seen as an element of psychological treatment, as it requires patience, tolerance against obstacles and preserving hope for the difficulties of worshiping. Patience, a transformation and educational activity in terms of achieving positive personality traits is one of the important points in Sufi terminology.
Key words: The early Sufis Patience, Quran, Hadith, Levels, Achievements.
