The Great Shaking: Seeking Divine Sanctuary in a World of Conflict

Dear Friends and Seekers,
​As we watch the current events unfolding across the globe, it is impossible to ignore the "Great Shaking" taking place. From escalating conflicts to social and economic instability, it feels as if the foundations of our material world are crumbling. Many are left feeling fearful, divided, and lost in the chaos of the headlines.
​But as believers in a Higher Power, we must look beyond the surface of these struggles. These global conflicts are a powerful reminder that there is no true security in worldly empires or material wealth. When the earth beneath us shakes, it is a call from the Divine to return to the only Truth that is Immutable and Eternal.
​In these times of "Fitna" (trials), the path to peace isn't found in fueling more hatred or taking sides in worldly power struggles. Instead, it is found in "Holding onto the Rope of God"—the spiritual connection that transcends borders, politics, and war. This connection is our only true sanctuary.
​Let us use this period of global turmoil not to lose hope, but to strengthen our hearts. When we anchor ourselves in the Divine, we find a peace that remains unshaken, even if the whole world is in conflict. It is time to turn our faces back to the Creator and find the stillness that the world can never give.
