Columbus Sufi Circle: New Year's Events for 2012


This multi-Tariqa Columbus Sufi Circle is open to all Sunni and Shia Muslims as well as people of any faith. The program will start at 7:30pm on Saturday, December 31. I will be representing the Traditional Sharia based Shadhili Sufi Order under the guidance of my Shaykh Sidi Muhammad al-Jamal (who lives on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem). People from various orders express themselves differently due to the mix of traditional and neo-Sufis groups. (Without Intra-faith, there is no Inter-faith.) Islam is about the heart, not blind obedience.

SCHEDULE FOR THE EVENING

5:00 – 6:15 p.m. – Aramaic Prayer Cycle

6:15 - 7:00 p.m. – Heavy hors d'oeuvres and holiday snacks

Those who wish can bring something to share. No obligation to bring anything but oneself however!

7:00 – 8:30 p.m. – Dances of Universal Peace Global Peace Celebration

8:30 – More visiting around refreshments, or departing for quiet evenings at home, or on to other parties!


Come for one or all parts of the evening. Drop by and join in!
