Zawiyah
Zawiyah Spiritual Retreat: Become a New Creation
Zawiyah is a holy opportunity to walk closer to God. It is a time for greater silence, rest, and to be deeply held in love. Through traditional Sufi practices such as remembrance, prayer, and writing the stations and 
other of Sidi’s writings, participants can experience their hearts turning to face only God.
The Farm of Peace offers a silent, peaceful setting in which new students can grow more familiar with the practices and prayers of the Sufi way and in which more experienced students can deepen their walking to God. Extended zawiyah at the Farm of Peace can also greatly benefit anyone experiencing physicial or emotional illness.
Under the direction of the zawiyah guides, participants are held and guided through the walking of the 28 stations to taste the unity of God’s love.
Zawiyah is the deepest walking to God for me…walks me more than any other spiritual practice. I fell in love with Sidi’s teachings in zawiyah, they came alive for me. Now when I write, I feel Sidi’s presence and love coming through. – Jamila

To be held in the loving container of zawiyah was a true gift from Allah and a giant step forward in my surrender and walking to Allah. It was particularly helpful at a very challenging time for me, but I intend to participate regularly, even when all seems to be going well. – Nuh
