Rifai Dervish
Rifai Dervish (who have the ability to command animals). Dervish or Darvesh in Persian usually refers to a person who is a seeker of the truth i.e. universal truth. Within the Islamic tradition such people are often known as Sufis, Sufi, people of the way or mystics and they come from every strata of society; here monetary considerations are inapplicable since the situation is that of a deep personal inner spiritual longing. There are in existence a number Sufi Orders many of which bear the name of a great saint and within these orders various practices have continued over the centuries in order to assist generations of seekers whose desire is to be brought to reality itself. It is said that the number of ways to reality/truth exceeds the number of grains of sand on the beach. It may be noted that this infinite number of ways to truth can even start at a point beyond religion, ultimately the truth is an univeral quality."

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph portrays a Rifai Dervish, a spiritual figure deeply rooted in the rich history and traditions of the Islamic world. The term Dervish, derived from the Persian word for a seeker of truth, is often used interchangeably with Sufi, a mystic or ascetic devoted to the inner spiritual aspects of Islam. The Rifai Order, named after the renowned 13th-century saint Shaykh Ahmad al-Rifai, is one of many Sufi Orders that have persisted throughout the centuries, providing guidance to countless seekers on their journey towards self-realization. The Rifai Dervish in this image is believed to possess the unique ability to command animals, a testament to the deep spiritual connection he shares with the natural world. This connection is not limited to the realm of religion but transcends it, reflecting the universality of truth and spirituality. The Rifai Order, like many other Sufi Orders, has preserved various practices and teachings passed down through generations, offering a path for seekers to traverse the infinite ways to truth and reality. The number of paths to truth is said to exceed the number of grains of sand on the beach, emphasizing the boundless nature of this spiritual quest. This photograph captures a moment in the timeless pursuit of truth and spiritual growth, a journey that transcends borders, cultures, and religions, reminding us of the universal human longing for connection and enlightenment.
