Your not getting mixed up with Idries Shah by any chance. HE SAYS THAT ALL PATHS, ALL RELIGIONS LEAD TO GOD.

HERES A QUOTE FROM ONE OF HIS SITES:

www.katinkahesselink.net/sufi/idries-shah-biography.html

Idries Shah's writings greatly extended the western knowledge of the Sufi teachings. He profoundly influenced several intellectuals, notably Doris Lessing and Robert Ornstein. His definition of Sufism was liberal in that he was of the opinion that it predated Islam and did not depend on the Qur'an, but was universal in source, scope and relevance (see Sufi studies). He maintained that spiritual teachings should be presented in forms and terms that are familiar in the community where they are to take root. He believed that students should be given work based on their individual capacities, and rejected systems that apply the same exercises to all. In his own work he used teaching stories and humor to great effect.

Shah's earliest published works reflected his interest in magic, witchcraft and occultism: Oriental Magic (London 1956), and The Secret Lore of Magic: Book of the Sorcerers (London 1957). He started Octagon Press ([1]) in 1960, and the first Octagon title was Gerald Gardner: Witch, the biography of a leading figure in the British witchcraft revival of the 1950s. Attributed to "Jack L. Bracelin", it has long been known as a pseudonymous work by Shah, who was Gardner's secretary at the time of writing (see F. Lamond, Fifty Years of Wicca, 2004). Later, Shah developed his press as a means of publishing and distributing Sufi books that might otherwise have gone out of print. His desire was to have these always available to each generation. The books range from traditional Sufi manuals, to contemporary works. Several books feature the Mulla Nasrudin character. These humorous teaching stories are believed to act as a mirror to human foibles, aiding philosophical self examination.


Definitely an ignorant sufi, if you could still call him a sufi.

I have also heard some people saying this. I don't know why they say that. But his dargah sharif is in Delhi near the dargah sharif of Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya Rahmatullahi 'alayh. I am currently reading a really interesting book written by him called The goal of life
