Through Love to Perfection • Sufi Paths of Consciousness and Healing
2026-06-13 10:00 - 16:00 | Sufi Center MN, 8120 Penn Ave. South, Suite 455, Bloomington, MN, 55431, United States
The Sufi teachings are a process on the path of self-knowledge. Self-knowledge, respectively self-discovery, means to open to the deeper levels of our being and thus to walk the path of self-healing, the path of becoming whole, of self-acceptance in all its facets. This process leads to a conscious embedding to life, in the inner and outer nature of the cosmos and in the oneness of all being.

The heart, as the center and mediator between polarities, the obvious and the hidden, between the above and the below, between heaven and earth, plays an essential role in the Sufi tradition. It is a process that is accompanied and supported by general spiritual explanations, traditional Sufi methods, meditations, forms of healing, cosmology, the realm of dreams, breathing techniques and movement flows.

Join us for this special journey Through Love to Perfection

with Fawzia Al-Rawi

Finding Ground: A Three Part Wellness Series

with Ahmed David Salo

Tuesday June 9, 16, and 23 at 7pm CT﻿

We are living through a lot. The stress is real. The fatigue is real. And for many of us, the sense of being knocked off center has become so familiar it feels normal. This three-session series offers a way back. Each 90-minute gathering combines evidence-based nervous system skills with heart-centered practice — tools that are as practical as they are profound. You’ll learn to read your own system, return to balance quickly, and build the kind of ground that holds even when the world around you doesn’t. What we’ll cover across the three sessions: How to recognize when your nervous system has been pushed out of its resilience zone — and how to come backSkills for regulating your emotional and energetic state in real time, anywhereHow to activate the heart as a resource — not as a concept, but as a felt, living realityHow to weave these practices into daily life so they’re available when you need them mostCome as you are. Leave more grounded than you arrived. No registration is required for this series! All reminders and recordings will be shared openly like this one and are also available by request for those that will not be able to attend. Ahmed David Salo is a certified Sufi healer and teacher, and executive coach. He helps people find their ground and return to themselves. He offers 1:1 coaching, Sufi healing, and group programs at ThroughLine Institute. If you have any questions about the course, we encourage you to email administration@suficentermn.org

Renewal Through Divine Chant
2026-06-04 18:15 - 19:15 | Zahra Liz Lupien House, 647 Lincoln Avenue, St Paul, MN, 55105, United States
An In-Person Offering

Renewal Through Divine Chant

Every Other Week (see Calendar), Thursday Evenings @ 6:15pm - 7:15pm Central Time

Harmony is evident in nature, and it exists in every one of us. When we humans yearn to re-balance our energy and our deeper spirit, we can find sanctuary in the natural world, but also in movement, in silent contemplation. Or, we can celebrate the Divine spark of sound. Using the gift of our own voice, our physical presence and our breath, we can rekindle the age- old traditions of prayer and chant. Sound has mysterious restorative qualities, and we discover even more so, when we participate in expressing sound ourselves. This expands when we join together in common with others. In sound, we can draw closer to our Divine origins. Come and taste a special opportunity to shift your state through embodied prayer and chant. This weekly meeting offers practices that have a powerful capacity to move our energy. Both spoken Sufi chants and sung chants more widely from the Abrahamic tradition will be offered. Each meeting will consist of a teaching drawn from the writings from various Sufi masters and teachers, including Sidi al Jamal and Hazrat Inayat Khan, among others. There will be a time for brief individual sharing. Each class will focus on the hearts of its participants, offering chants to strengthen their own spiritual journey. Group dhikr will complete the hour. You need not be a Sufi to join us. A heart-centered donation will be accepted but not required.

Event DetailsWhen: Every other week (see Calendar) Thursday evenings 6:15pm – 7:15pm.Where: In person at Zahra Liz’s home If you would like to attend this event and do not know Zahra Liz and where her home is contact Habiba Laila by emailing administration@suficentermn.org.

Gathering in the Love: Special Fifth Sunday Topics

Fifth Sundays are a bit rare in that they only come four times a year. These special opportunities allow us to gather around a topic related to Sufism and spirituality and give us space to connect with our hearts, the Divine, and others. Gathering in the Love is a time to more deeply reflect, receive, and gain clarity about the practical steps we can take in both walking closer to God and being of service in the world. We would love to have you join us. Teachers and topics will vary for these Sundays.

Divine Qualities Series
2026-05-28 13:00 - 14:00 | Online Zoom, MN, United States
In our journey to God and in healing the places that keep us from knowing the fullness of who we are, we may find we need the help of specific Divine Qualities or lights. These lights or Divine Names/Qualities can both strengthen us, as well as soften the deep, unconscious patterns and beliefs that block the manifestation of our true selves.

Thursdays from 1pm – 2pm pm, Central Time, starting December 4.

About the Course

We will be studying the Attributes of Allah from the book —Divine Names— The 99 Healing Names of the One Love written by Rosina-Fawzia Al Rawi . This book is widely available. She may also may quote other Quality books as we go deeper. In the new class on the Divine Names, Maryam Shamsa Jennie Woodard will teach and guide us through these essential divine qualities and help us uncover the Divine essence within us. The class format includes: time to more deeply connect with the Divine and our own heartsreading about the Divine Namesreceiving the energetic transmission of each quality and reciting ita forgiveness practice that returns our human/ego qualities and replaces them with the Divine Qualitiesabsorbing, merging, and becoming the QualitiesThe plan is to study for 52 weeks, allowing for some breaks to make room for life. It may be more realistic to say we will complete the Names in 60 weeks.

About the Teacher

Maryam Shamsa Jennie Woodard

Maryam Shamsa’s heart was awakened with love, peace and well being when she learned the Sufi practice of Remembrance in 2003. In 2005 she began attending classes in the University of Spiritual Healing and has been a student of Sufism since. Maryam is currently a teacher for the Institute of Spiritual Healing and a Master Healer.She finds very little more gratifying than sitting with another person in their inner landscape and looking where God is at every turn:“If I can help you open the places where you stop yourself from receiving the Light and Love that the Divine has just for you, then we will have done something. Love is everything.” Maryam is a wife, mother and grandmother. She gardens and watches the beauty of the world around her.
