COURSE OVERVIEW
We invite everyone to a spiritual journey towards heartfelt changes in ourselves. In this course, we embark on a spiritual journey to our Lord. Our teacher is a scholar who mastered the knowledge of the apparent and the knowledge of the soul. He is Ibn Ata, Master, Imam, and Shaykh Ibn Ata-Allah al-Sakandari (may God have mercy on him), a great authority in Islamic spirituality, Islamic Law, Hadith science, Arabic language, and other branches of knowledge.
Ibn Ata’s words of wisdom (hikam) are meant to be a step-by-step spiritual journey to God, in the true sense of the word, from its start to its end, along with the steps that Ibn Ata mastered and prescribed. This series is a selection of thirty of these hikam, presented in the form of “steps” along one’s journey to/with God.
