About this Event
The Original A.I. (Allah’s Intelligence) — Souhbah & the Secrets of Trees @ Seward Park
Sunday, Dec 14, 12 PM - 4PM
Light refreshments will be served
Have you ever faced hardship and found Divine comfort through nature?
Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) faced a myriad of tests throughout his life, and sought refuge with Allah, often making dua while outdoors. How might we learn from his legacy, and when faced with trials, seek Allah's guidance while being outdoors...even when it's raining?!
A guided outdoor reflection led by Fitrah Outdoors with Imam Adéyínká Mendes offering a nature-based spiritual teaching.
