WELCOME TO JERRAHI ORDER OF GHANA
The Jerrahi Order of Ghana is the Ghanaian branch of The Jerrahi Order of America, which is based in Chestnut Ridge, New York, and is a major branch of a worldwide Sufi Organization headquartered in Istanbul. Founded about 300 years ago by Sheikh Sultan Muhammad Nureddin al-Jerrahi(KS), our aim is to seek advancement of Islamic spiritual and religious principles and values through rigourous observance of the Sharia, as well as adherence to the principles of Ihsan through personal rectitude, community service, regular group and individual practices, charitable undertakings as well as through the sacred practices of remembrance, detachment, Quran recitation, poetry, music, contemplation and awareness.
“The heart’s abode it purifies The dervish into phoenix it transforms To the Realm of the Divine it leads ’Tis the Remembrance of the Lord.”
— Pir Nureddin al-Jerrahi (Raa)
“The sheikhs are the pourers of the wine and the dervish is the glass. Love is the wine. By the hand of the wine pourer, the glass is filled. This is a short way. Love could be offered to one by other hands. This is a short way.”
