How do we increase brother/sisterhood in Sufism?
How do we increase love and tolerance between us as human beings?
In Sufism it is essential to understand that both of the above is brought by coming together, by association.
Our tariqah, the Naqshbandi Sufi order (also known as the Naqshbandi Golden Chain or Haqqani), Sheikh Nazim Al-Haqqani (ks) informs us we cannnot bring either love or tolerance without regular association with people in and outside of Tariqah.
That is why regular weekly Zikr gatherings, through Sufi centres around the world, are so essential to not only give a taste of Spirituality but to give non-muslims an opportunity to experience Rememberance of their Creator in a set way.
