Course Description:
Awaken your heart. Purify your soul. Illuminate your path.
Step into the Light is a transformative 12-step program of spiritual awakening rooted in the Qurʾān, the Sunnah, and the timeless wisdom of the great masters of the inward path — Imām al-Ghazālī, Ibn ʿAṭāʾ Allāh al-Iskandarī, Rūmī, al-Qushayrī, Ibn ʿAjība, and Ibn al-Qayyim.
Guided by Dr. Omar Qureshi, the course takes students step-by-step through the soul’s journey from delusion (ghurūr) to illumination (nūr). Each session explores one of twelve stages — from the heart’s confession of need, to surrender, purification, self-inventory, and finally, service and love.
Drawing from classical texts such as Iḥyāʾ ʿUlūm al-Dīn, al-Risāla al-Qushayriyya, Manāzil al-Sāʾirīn, and al-Ḥikam al-ʿAṭāʾiyya, participants will study the art of inner transformation while engaging in daily practices of dhikr, duʿāʾ, journaling, and acts of service.
Through the insights of the early sages — al-Junayd, al-Ḥārith al-Muḥāsibī, and Abū Ṭālib al-Makkī — students will explore the spiritual psychology of the nafs, qalb, ʿaql, and rūḥ, and learn how to traverse the stations (maqāmāt) and states (aḥwāl) of the heart.
By the end of the program, you will have walked the classical path of purification (tazkiyat al-nafs):
- from heedlessness (ghafla) → remembrance (dhikr),
- from pride (kibr) → humility (tawāḍuʿ),
- from despair (qunūṭ) → hope (rajāʾ),
- and from illusion → the radiance of divine intimacy.
Outcome:
A life illuminated by knowledge, softened by love, and anchored in the remembrance of God.
