The correct option is D 1, 2 and 3

Silsila may be translated as "(religious) order" or "spiritual genealogy" where one Sufi Master transfers his khilfat to his spiritual descendant.

Sufism, known as tasawwuf in the Arabic-speaking world, is a form of Islamic mysticism that emphasizes introspection and spiritual closeness with God.

Sama refers to, the Sufi (Muslim mystic) practice of listening to music and chanting to reinforce ecstasy and induce mystical trance.
