In the heart of Mexico City, Shaykha Amina Teslima al-Jerrahi leads a circle of whirling dervishes—women and men devoted to the search for the “hidden treasure”. Born in Puerto Rico and raised in the Catholic tradition, she now guides a vibrant Sufi community within the Jerrahi lineage, offering a feminine expression of Islam that points toward an unmediated experience of God—an intimacy that begins where the self dissolves.
