Makkan Openings

Meccan Openings: A Pilgrim's Guide to Divine Secrets is a sacred portal into the spiritual reality of Hajj, one of the foundational pillars of Islam. This journey is gleaned entirely from the teachings of contemporary living Muslim saints of the illustrious Naqshbandi Sufi order, including a blessed lady saint of this path, Hajjah Aminah Adil. This ground-breaking book takes the reader by the hand from the body and form of the rituals of pilgrimage to its haqiqa (reality) and origin, in the spiritual dominion and Divine Presence. This book is an ascension for those who have already fulfilled this rite of Islam, a solace to those who have not been able to perform their pilgrimage yet, and a nostalgic breeze for anyone longing to return to Allah's Sacred House, allowing all to journey spiritually to their inner Ka'bah and the celestial Bayt al-Ma'mur (Oft-Visited House). This, together with the abundance of pictures of saints and sacred sites as well as sacred quotes, make this book a much-needed preparation for our bodies to visit the Divine Abode on earth, in Makka the Honored, and then onwards to the blessed city of Madina, to receive the Madinan illuminations from the precious heart of the Best of Creation, our Master Muhammad, upon whom be peace.
