This study aims to describe the moderation of Ali Jum'ah's Sufism thinking and his position in the middle of the current vortex of debate among intellectuals, both reformists and traditionalists. In the dimension of modernity, the reformists who were fronted by the ideology of Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab played an active role in closing the areas of Sufism which were considered to have experienced many deviations and misguidance by too 'believing' their mursyids.
