Circle of Sacred Knowledge

Spirituality Study Session with Dr. Timothy Gianotti

Time: Noon
Location: Upper classroom, Noor Cultural Centre

Dr. Timothy Gianotti (Noor Fellow in Arabic and Islamic Studies, York University) hosts this monthly open study session devoted to traditional texts of spiritual formation and sacred knowledge. While the texts and topics will come from the Islamic spiritual tradition, people from all faiths are invited to participate and stay for the Friday (jum’ah) prayer service which begins at 1:20 pm.

In celebration of the Islamic months of Sha’ban and Ramadan, this special series will explore texts and topics pertaining to aspects of traditional theology and practice.  No preparation is required, and all are welcome.


    About Noor Cultural Centre

    We aim to be a centre for Islamic practice and learning, and celebration of Islamic culture, while respecting the diversity in peoples and religions as directed by the Qur’an [49.13]: We have created you out of male and female, and have made you into nations and tribes, in order that you might come to know one another. In the sight of God the noblest among you is the one who is most deeply conscious of God.

    NOTE: Noor Cultural Centre no longer maintains a physical location

    Its 123 Wynford Drive location was sold in October 2021 after 18 months of continuous lockdown for COVID-19. Since March 2020, all Noor programming has been virtual, and is planned to continue thus, insh'Allah.
