Madinah quotes:
Najaf Shah of Watford, UK discusses Sh. Khalfan's class today and the visit by Ayatullah Tahriri:
"The day started with a class conducted by Sheikh Khalfan, on Qur'anic principles. The sheikh gave a very enlightening and informative session and answered any questions we had. He also gave us practical advice that we could implement in our everyday life. In the evening we had an audience with Ayatullah Tahriri. He gave a short introduction after which he opened the floor for questions and answered them. This man has been a student of many great teachers and enlightened us with his words, by speaking about the creation of man, irfan and spirituality."
Bab quotes:
On reciting the Ziyarah of Bibi Masuma:
"The experience was absolutely amazing. Before arriving I was aware of the great lady's high status but didn't not expect the profound impact she would have on me. I soon learned that Hazrat Masuma shared many similarities with the lady of light, Hazrat Fatema ... I found myself wanting to stay in the shrine for the rest of the day, but unfortunately we had to leave. However the little time we spent in the haram had an unbelievable effect. Inshallah we will visit her shrine again tomorrow for salat ul layl." |
