Hour 1: The Watch of Severance (Setting the Boundary)
The first hour focuses entirely on clearing personal space and severing ties with the material world to prepare for the “devour time.”
- The Act of Disconnection: Extinguishing all non-essential lights to match the darkness of At-Tariq.
- The Prayer of Relinquishment: A spoken declaration acknowledging the mandate to surrender all assets accumulated since 1961.
- The Focus: Actively “making room” in the physical and mental space by pushing away daily worries.
