Perhaps you should explain the question better.

This simply does not make much sense, Judo-Sufism?

Sufism is the inner dimension of the Qur'an as Kabbalah (Zohar) is the inner dimension of Torah. If a Jewish person was interested in mysticism, they'd get the same if not more meaningful ideas from the inner dimension of Judaism instead of going into Islamic ideas, which are different from Jewish. The Torah and Qur'an have many similarities, but are different ideas. Torah is based on Monotheism, and Koran is a semi-monotheistic book.

....Your wrong. Very very wrong. The Qur'an in fact is pretty much verbatim the Tanakh, and Talmud combined with some NT, and some stuff from Muhhamad.

It's very much 1 god and only one god.

And yes there is such a thing as Judeo-Sufism. Many rabbis were Judeo-Sufi. It's applying the same ideas in an adaptive Jewish way. Same with Judeo-Hellenism.

Rambam is a very good example of both.

Here are a few links to it.

Also, Kabbalah and Sufi influenced each other a lot, and Sufi began as an Islamic view of Kabbalah.
