Sufism can be defined as a belief and religious experience in which Islam practitioners seek purity of heart and soul, knowledge and harmony with all creations through direct personal experience of God. This path of spiritualism is said to be mystical because it alters the state of consciousness.

To whoever wants to go through this path, needs a mystical guide who will direct the disciple and order him/her to follow some strict ascetic practices.

when studying cause and effect, historians usually group the causes into different categories. for example, cultural causes reflect how a society’s literature and art convey the way the society saw itself in relation to the rest of the world. another resource that historians use to understand society is pop culture, which tells them the trends and ideas that are preferred by the common people. when studying cause and effect, it’s important to remember multiple causation, or the idea that an effect could have several causes and vice versa.  

the correct option is “cultural causes” since art and literature are related to the culture of a place. culture is determined by literature, art, music.

the correct option is “pop culture” since it reflects the likes and ideas of common people whereas the rest of the options do not focus on common people.  

the correct option is “multiple causation” since it refers to the idea that events are caused by multiple reasons, not just a single one.
