Rumi's Birthday 2022

For Rumi's 815th, Dr. Fariba Enteshari put together a small message to share with you all. Each year the Rumi Educational Center puts together something to celebrate the day Jalāl ad-Dīn Mohammad Rūmī was born in the year 1207, in present-day Afghanistan. We celebrate the body of wisdom he left behind and is still relevant today. Fariba discusses how his wisdom can support us to unity. She also shares a quote with us (below) to reflect upon.

Watch the video below…



از وى ار سايه نشانى مىدهد 

‎شمس هر دم نور جانى مىدهد

“The shadow of his presence indicates light,

Shams illuminates each soul by his breath.”

~Rumi
