The Spiritual Wisdoms of Ibn Ata Allah - Exploring the Meanings of Repentance (Tawbah)
​with Ustadha Aliya Rahim

"Whoever travels a path to seek knowledge, Allāh facilitates for him a path to Paradise.” (Muslim)

About The Course
​
Join us for an evening course exploring the essential meanings of the famous Wisdoms of Ibn Ata Allah al-Iskandari:

The Hikam, or Wisdom, of the great scholar Ibn `Ata 'Allah al-Iskandari has long been acknowledged as an essential and classic masterwork of the Islamic science of purifying the soul. Ibn `Ata 'Allah exemplified the ultimate model of a Spiritual master possessed of a deep foundation in the sciences of the Qur'an, the way of the Prophet and the Universal Laws of the Islamic way of life, both outer and inner.
​
Short but immensely thought provoking, dense in their significance and insightfulness, crisp and sharp in their elucidation, the aphoristic Hikam are a true manifesto for those who are sincerely on the path of knowledge and awareness. This wisdom strips away our conventional responses to events, actions and phenomena, and encourage us to concentrate on the only true Reality, Allah.

This course is suitable for both absolute beginners as well as those who have studied Islamic faith and spirituality in the past.
