Khidma projects of Ghamkol Sharif UK
Hadhrat Sufi Sahib’s (ra) entire life demonstrated the two things he always taught;
He initiated and oversaw many projects throughout his 52 years in the community. These Khidma projects of Ghamkol Sharif UK are established on the ethos of love, live and give.
LOVE: A firm faith with a selfless love, care and concern of Allah, His Messenger (peace be upon him) and His creation.
LIVE: A life of complete submission to Allah which always strives to love and honour His Messenger (peace be upon him) and a learning and application of the blessed Shari’ah.
GIVE: This is a fundamental element of Tasawuf. To give as one received. To humble oneself and strive in the service of Allah and His Messenger (peace be upon him). To indiscriminately work in fulfilling the needs of the creation.
