One endless hoo-ha about devout Muslim (4)
I believe the answer is:
sufi
'devout muslim' is the definition.
'sufi' can be an answer for 'muslim' (I've seen this before). I am not certain of the 'devout' bit.
'one endless hoo-ha about' is the wordplay.
'one' becomes 'i' (Roman numeral).
'endless' means to remove the last letter.
'hoo-ha' becomes 'fuss' (hoo-ha can mean a fuss or commotion).
'about' says the letters should be written backwards.
'fuss' with its last letter taken off is 'fus'.
'i'+'fus'='ifus'
'ifus' backwards is 'SUFI'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sufi that I've seen before include "Moslem mystic" , "Muslim mystic" , "Muslim inclined to mysticism" , "Islamic ascetic" .)
