The following lessons were delivered by Habib Umar bin Hafiz based on Imam Abu Talib al-Makki’s foundational work in the science of Tasawwuf, Qut al Qulub. Habib is also commenting on the opening sections of Habib `Abd al-Rahman Balfaqih’s unique poem, al-Rashafat.
By using the book and the poem, Sayyidi al-Habib `Umar lays out the foundations which every seeker needs on the path to Allah Most High.
The classes were delivered at the Annual Summer Dowra Intensive in Tarim, Yemen (July-August 2014). Audio recordings are included below.
