Salam

this lecture series is possibly one of the best and most informative introductions to tasawuff i have ever heard....

In a way I think this lecture series changed my life.

i think it would be difficult even for a staunch anti-sufi not to be swayed by Shaykh Hussain's style and the content of his message.

one of the interesting points of th electure is hwen Shaykh Hussain mentions that he never uses the term sufi or sufism to describe tasawuff because of the loaded term that it has become and to avoid people judging it by what some wayward so-called dervish in some forgotten corner of the world does at a grave yard (not quite his exact words).
