Join us on March 9th following worship for a Second Hour with Hina Khan. During this Second Hour, our HIU Intern Hina will introduce the congregation to the concepts of Spirituality and Mysticism as understood under the lens of Islam. She will elaborate on the critical importance of the archetype Isa Ibn Maryam — Jesus Son of Mary (Peace be upon him) for Muslim mystics often referred to as Sufis. She will uncover Sufi teachings pertaining to asceticism, divine mercy, and excellence of being, using references to Jesus Christ in the Quran, Hadith (sayings of Prophet Muhammed PBUH), and critical Sufi texts.
