Bismillah Hir-Rahman Nir-Rahim

How many of us struggle with thoughts and habits we wish we could leave behind—sins, addictions, patterns that weigh on the soul? Allah, our Most Merciful Creator, has already revealed the cure:

“If you keep your duty to Allah, He will give you a criterion (to distinguish right from wrong), cleanse you of your sins, and forgive you…”
— Sura Al-Anfal (8), Ayat 29

The path to healing begins with taqwa—a conscious, sincere effort to follow the teachings of Islam. When we live with taqwa, Allah grants us clarity, removes the evil within us, and replaces it with light and forgivenes
💡

Faith isn’t just belief—it’s medicine for the soul. Many of us have it, but we don’t take it. Now is the time. Take your medicine. Experience the sweetness of true belief, the peace of surrender, and the freedom from darkness.

And if you don’t know how—ask Allah to send you a teacher. You can’t learn Islam from books or videos alone. You need someone who was taught in truth, with a chain of knowledge that reaches back to the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

Ask. Seek. Pray. Allah never delays answering the one who sincerely seeks guidance.

May Allah guide us all to the path of clarity, healing, and light. Ameen.
🤲🏼

Pir of the West
24th Jumada al-Oula
Urs of Jalaluddin Rumi ق
Despite over 800 years since his passing, the venerable Jalaluddin Rumi's place in the heart of spiritual seekers has increased immensely with the passing of time. His extraordinary life, beset by immense trials, stands as a landmark for those whose hearts yearn for the Divine. His very name 'Rumi' (Roman) references the West where his approach to spirituality has touched the hearts of Western people in an extraordinary way. Rumi encouraged sama, listening to spiritually uplifting music and 'turning' a sacred form of whirling which represents the mystical ascent towards the Source of all Truth. His written works, are of such renown that they have been translated into many of the world's languages. He has even been described as the "best selling poet" in the United States.
Mawlana Shaykh Nazim al-Haqqani (ق) descends from our master Jalaluddin Rumi ق on his mother's side, and as such has inherited his astounding ability to reach the hearts of Westerners. As a youth, Shaykh Nazim was given great consideration because of his unusually high spiritual station. Everyone in his hometown a knew of his ability, at a young age, to advise people, and to predict the future and reveal it spontaneously. He would often disappear from home and later be found either in the mosque or at the grave of Umm ul-Hiram (ر), a Companion of the Prophet (ﷺ) whose grave has a mosque built beside it.
His father sent him to school to study secular knowledge during the day, and in the evening he studied the religious sciences. He was a genius among his fellow-students. After completing his high school studies every night, he would devote his time to studying the Mevlevi and Qadiri Tariqats. He used to conduct the Qadiri and Mevlevi circles on Thursday and Friday.
