“Sufism is a journey from the outward to the inward—a journey between transcendence and immanence in which the Sufis become the personification of the ideal condition of fitra—inner and outer harmony. This harmony is sought through knowledge and practices common to many spiritual traditions.”
–excerpted from his essay Like a Rainbow by Zaman Stanizai, PhD
