Abstract :Sufi ethics is a system of moral values and principles that occupies an important place in the Islamic Sufi tradition. Sufism is a path and understanding that emphasises the mystical and inner dimension of Islam. Sufi ethics focus on the process of the individual’s approach to God, spiritual development, inner purity and the acquisition of moral virtues. Sufi ethics are guided by the basic moral principles of the Qur’an and the exemplary lives of the Prophets. These moral principles include values such as justice, patience, tolerance, love, mercy, humility, loyalty, gratitude, forgiveness, truthfulness, inner peace and submission to God. Hazrat Hasan, the grandson of the Prophet, grew up in the centre of the Prophetic lifestyle, which is the origin and source of the Sufi ethics. Being the grandson of the Prophet, he grew up in an environment where he was the centre of love. He played an important role in expressing the concept of love. In this study, Hz. Hasan’s states and words that can be associated with Sufism have been mentioned. The fact that the grandson of the Messenger of Allah renounced the caliphate to stop the bloodshed among Muslims is similar to the renunciation of sovereignty by the great Sufis, as well as the fact that many Sufis think of the people, not themselves, and act for their good. Hz. Hasan is a person who can be an example for the youth of our time, both in his sacrifices and in his morals. His hilm, modesty, altruism and futuvah are his characteristics that should be brought to the fore. Our historical perspective is based only on wars.Keywords : Hasan B Ali, Ehl i Beyt, Sufizm, Tasavvuf, Zühd
