The 99 Names of God: A Sufi Journey Through the IFS Lens

Welcome.

This is a contemplative journey through the 99 Names of God, not as theology, but as inner remembrance. Rooted in Sufi devotion and seen through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS), each Divine Name becomes a doorway inward.

You won’t just read about God's mercy, power, tenderness, or justice. You’ll sit with how those qualities land inside you: in your ache, in your resistance, in your hope, in your parts.
 

Each entry includes:

  • • A soft, sacred teaching of the Name

  • • A parts-based reflection inspired by IFS

  • • A gentle invitation to notice what stirs

​

Some Names will soften you. Some may awaken shame, fear, reverence, or resistance. That is part of the journey.  This is not a study. This is a return. Begin where you're called.  Let each Name be a whisper into your inner world. Let the Beloved meet you — part by part.
