Circles of Dhikr (Invocation)
Hosted by the Qadiri Budshishi Tariqa under the guidance of Sidi Hamza al-Qadiri Budshishi Allah be well pleased with him
The angels circle the world looking for circles of invocation, then when they find them they descend. Even the man who is passing by, with no intention of participation, is forgiven.
The Zawiya plays host to a variety of dhikr programmes every week to cater for the needs of both new and more advanced students of the path to God. These collective practices supplement the private daily invocation that combine to provide a powerful a spiritual education. Benefits include:
§ The purification of the self
§ The gradual lifting of the veils of separation
§ Tranquility of the soul
§ Nourishing love of the Real
Each circle of dhikr follows a precise format in accordance with the instructions and guidance of Sidi Hamza al-Qadiri Budshishi Allah be well pleased with him, a renowned spiritual guide from Morocco.
Some of these gatherings are open to the public, whilst others are restricted to those who are established in the required disciplines. Separate gatherings are held for men and women as this facilitates full and undivided concentration within the dhikr.
