In the charity's own words
We seek to provide a point of contact with the spiritual aspect of Islam, Sufism, for all interested, muslim and non-muslim, with the broad intention of benefiting society in general. Offering guidance and advice from this perspective, we run courses and discussions, regular meetings for prayer and "rememberance of God", as well as prison visits.
