The book we will be studying is Shaykh Ibn Ata 'Illah's Kitabul Hikam. In particular, we will be covering selections from the first portion of the work which contains aphorisms pertaining to the path to Allah, Almighty.
A quality translation is available here as a hardcover, though it should be noted the order of the aphorisms in this copy is different than the original text. The Arabic text with the translation will be projected during the event and will be shared with the registrants prior to the start of the program. Click here to download the presentation that will be used. |

Complementary light refreshments will be provided. Lunch will not be provided, but there are plenty of nearby tasty zabiha options to choose from for lunch.
