center. The retreat center, formerly a bed and breakfast style inn, has a very large, well-equipped kitchen, dormitories, guest rooms, a large prayer hall and excellent facilities. Located in a quiet village in the German countryside, it is the focus for many Sufi activities, retreats, conferences and workshops throughout the year, focussing on introducing non-Muslims to the spiritual side of Islam. |
