The Neighborhood Halaqa
A Gathering Place to Remember Our Purpose
The Neighborhood Halaqa provides a sanctuary for children, young adults, parents, and professionals to come together to travel on the path of personal and spiritual development together.
What to Expect
Something For Everyone
For children, we are currently telling the story of Dip & Dive, two young sea turtles on a journey of a lifetime navigating their new world and life. Along the way they learn about faith-based principles, Prophetic character, and purpose through their travels and interactions with the wondrous creations of Allah. This epic narrative poem is written by Ust. Rehan Mirza and it is premiered chapter by chapter in the Neighborhood Halaqa.
For young adults (12 to 18 yrs), we have a short talk led by a national/local youth leader or invited guest speaker gifted in speaking with this age demographic. Themes of spiritual development and Prophetic character will be shared in relevant perspectives and engaging ways.
For adults, we cover a text or lessons related in sulook (spiritual wayfaring) or Prophetic character. Halaqas may be led by renowned guest scholars/teachers or Br. Rehan Mirza.
The Neighborhood Halaqa is intended to facilitate the spiritual journey of all those who attend by creating an environment of adab, shared experience, and communal support. The Halaqa concludes in remembrance with the recitation of the Ratib al Shahir of Imam al Haddad and dua.
