• Inner meanings of the five pillars
• Softening of the heart (bringing closer to Allah (swt))
• Angels – especially Jibril and Michael
• Sufi practices
• Dhikr
• Prayer (darood, du’a and Salat)

The classes will be videotaped and live streamed, insha’allah. Each class will also have a short dhikr ullah, sohbet and, afterwards, tea at the Abode dinning room.
