About us
The Nimatullahi Sufi Center Houston hosts in-person meditation gatherings rooted in the Nimatullahi Sufi tradition.
We meet regularly for silent meditation, brief readings from classical Sufi poetry, and quiet reflection. The sessions are simple and structured, with an emphasis on stillness rather than instruction or discussion.
No prior experience with Sufism or meditation is required.
The Nimatullahi Sufi Order is a living Sufi lineage centered on remembrance of God and selfless service. Our gatherings reflect that approach: simple, restrained, and focused on meditative practices.
