HISTORY
Latifa Peggie Phillips
was Shefayat (national leader) in the Sufi Healing Order for the UK from 1985 to 1996. She was a dancer and led the Sufi group in Bath. Noor, for whom she was a teacher, remembers her with love: Latifa Peggie Philips had a wonderful technique with her umbrella which she used to cross busy London roads. She would raise her umbrella while simultaneously taking a firm grip on your arm and step forward. She was fearless. She liked her soup very hot. She was a very private and dignified woman. To sit with her as she conducted the healing service was an incredible experience ‑ a luminous experience. I still call upon her. After she died I was very upset and I suddenly felt her presence with me. She told me in no uncertain terms that there was work to do and I should stop this nonsense and continue the work.
