Abstract
To let oneself be inspired by God, to appreciate humanity, to build a bridge between godliness and human dignity, as well as to interpret faith ethically and affectively enriching, can be understood as the core aims of a religiously spiritual education. To open up to the perception, which is beyond the limits of knowledge, to deal with one's own fears, hopes, expectations and disappointments, to not make the meaning dependent on words are perceived as the important learning objective by the Tasawwuf (Sufism), which is described as Islamic-coined spirituality.
