Sufi Zikr Album by Victor Spiegel published on 2013-05-20T02:13:01Z Zikr is an ancient and traditional ritual of remembrance. A ritual is a combination lock. By performing the same movements, words, chants and intention as others have traditionally done in the past, we unlock a gateway to a timeless place that is inhabited by all the others who have performed and will perform the same ceremony throughout time. Through that gateway we find all the Sufi shaykhs, teachers, prophets, and angels who may easily manifest themselves because our intention is to praise Allah, and our ceremony is a clear, clean and beautiful opening for them and for learning and unity to take place. Zikr is a uniting of our brothers and sisters of the Tariqat. It binds us in a timeless way in praising Allah. Imagine, for example, that we are with Mohammed, Peace be upon him, and are in a state of Remembrance guided by him. Zikr is also what every living thing is doing, including the trees, the rocks, the wind, the angels. It is also like a beacon of light that radiates in all directions for the good of humanity. It penetrates the darkness of the world like nothing else can. It is a uniting of hearts and minds, and as we chant Allahís powerful names, those aspects of Allah are brought into the circle of Zikr. At the heart of the world is a thirst for Allah. Zikr is the pure water that satisfies and feeds a soul-starved planet.
