with Qais Al-Rifai
“Actions are but by the intention.” (Sunan an-Nasa’i 3437)
Make every action holy…
Explore how niyya, the intention behind every action, transforms outward ritual into inner devotion. Grounded in the words of the Prophet (sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam) and the insights of Sufi masters like Rumi, al-Ghazali, and al-Qushayri, this session uncovers how sincere intention forms the soul of worship. Learn how every act–from prayer to daily life–can become a step toward Divine closeness when guided by love, presence, and purity of heart.
About Qais
Qais Al-Rifai, grandson of Sidi, was raised in a household deeply rooted in the spiritual tradition of Islam. Immersed in the Sufi path from an early age, he developed a natural reverence for the inner dimensions of the faith. After completing academic studies in Psychology in Vienna, he turned his focus toward the sacred sciences particularly the Qur’an and Hadith. His path is now guided by a clear intention: to teach and transmit the spiritual teachings of Sufism, integrating sacred knowledge with a deep understanding of the human psyche.
