The correct answer to this open question is the following.

One way in which the behavior of the Sufis demonstrates a difference within the practice of Islam in the period c. 1200 - C. 1450​ was the mysticism that was practiced by Sufi Muslims. Sufists believed in unity with God in all of their actions. And during the 13th century, it was expressed in the fraternal orders that were formed to practice their religious teachings under solid leadership that took Sufi Islam to India. Introspection was a practice commonly followed by Sufi Muslims who wanted to keep a close internal relationship with God. The dismissed material things to keep that spiritual connection alive.
