A Vital Matters Perspective: Vehicles for Spiritual Learning
Vehicles for Spiritual Learning
Anjum Mir reflects on images of Sheikh Amadou Bamba and Sheikh Ibrahima Fall as vehicles for spiritual learning. Mir discusses how Bamba’s veiled image shifts focus from the individual to the divine, emphasizing humility and reverence, while Fall’s visible, welcoming face conveys warmth and human connection. Together, these contrasting depictions invite viewers to reflect on leadership, spiritual transmission, and the balance between guidance and personal devotion in Islamic practice.
