I am asking them who they attribute themselves to. Who from amongst the Sahabah were most "Soofi-istic" to them?
The isnad of the tariqas often go back to Ali and I think Abu Bakr as well.

But all of the sahaba are "soofi-stic" to Sufis as they embodied the practices, spiritual states, and character that Sufis seek.
