What am I giving to? The manifestation and fulfillment of our mission! Here are a few of the projects and initiatives accomplished or begun in 2012.

Strategic Goal: Community Support and Development

International Community Dhikr Program - In 2012 the USHS and SSC launched a joint project to bring our far flung community together to do a monthly dhikr at the same time, beginning with a video teaching streamed via internet. We used our new video conferencing equipment to connect communities visually, and to stream the program. We also offered conference call access to maximize outreach. There has been much gratitude expressed for the opportunity provided by this program, as it reaches even those with no community close by. We are also grateful to the teachers who braved the camera and offered us their wisdom via this new medium: Ibrahim Jaffe, Wadude Laird, Nura Laird, Sa’id bin Yunus and Rahima Schmall. Inshallah in 2013 we will continue this program with even more teachers and participants.
Thanks to many beloveds volunteering around the country, free daily practice calls abound all week long. These calls are a wonderful way to get support for key spiritual practices: al-Wird, Qur’an reading, reading and writing Sidi’s books, as well as other prayers and practices. Himma and offerings have expanded this year and inshallah will continue to grow. See teleclass schedule.

Strategic Goal: Financial Stability

Your Support Makes all the Difference

Subhanallah, al hamdulillah, la illaha ilalla Allahu Ahkbar! 2011 has been an amazing year, initiating the expansion of services and revenue producing programs which we have long prayed for. Thank you for the love, time, and money that you have given to SSC in order to make this possible!

What am I giving to? The manifestation and fulfillment of our long range plan !

Here are a few of the projects and initiatives accomplished or begun this year.

Strategic Goal: Community Support and Development

The SSC and USHS Boards have committed to working together to support one another and the national tariqa in several ways in the coming years. Together, as one hand, one heart, we believe we can be more successful in bringing the flag of unity to every home and reaching more people with the message of Peace, Love, Mercy, Justice and Freedom, inshallah.

Sidi is pleased with SSC and USHS working together in a new way, with the new developments and projects, and he is excited about the long term vision of being able to host the many visitors to the Mother Center who are in need of healing.

New video conference equipment has been acquired by several communities, the University and by the Mother Center for broadcasting teachings between communities and over the internet. Look for news of upcoming events and programs in 2012!!
