The Heart of Islam

$20.00

A conversation with Shaykh Ahmed Sidi Kostas.
Runtime: 38 minutes.

Islam is arguably the most misunderstood and feared religion in the world today. Yet, few people know that Sufism, the mystical branch of Islam, much like the core teachings of Christianity, is built around the concept of Love – Divine Love and love for all Creation. From the ecstatic bliss of the whirling dervishes to the multi-layered mystical poetry of Jalaluddin Rumi, Sufism has recently become better- known in the west, as a practice which promotes tolerance and acceptance among all peoples and faiths.
