On 23 June 2022 the Royal Ottoman Society welcomed Mawlāna in the historic city of Fribourg, a stop on the “Mawlāna on Tour” journey through France, Switzerland and Germany. Seekers from across the region gathered for a precious moment to pause, reflect and reconnect with the living Sufi tradition.
The participants joined in collective dhikr, reciting the holy names and sending blessings upon the Prophet (peace be upon him). The chant of “Lā ilāha illā-Llāh” filled the venue, creating an atmosphere of shared devotion that joined Ottoman spiritual heritage with the calm Swiss surroundings. Attendees expressed heartfelt gratitude for this unity and said the gathering deepened their sense of belonging to a global lineage.
