"One stone cannot build a house. It takes many stones to build a house. You are the ones who will work to build this house of God. This university will be your house. It will raise the flag of unity, peace, mercy, love, justice, and freedom for all people."
Shaykh Muhammad Sa'id al-Jamal

USHS Vision and Mission
We envision a world where the flag of God’s love, peace, mercy, freedom, justice and beauty flies above every home.
Our mission is to spread the Sufi message of unity, the way of all the prophets and messengers.
The University fulfills its mission by educating, supporting and guiding people to:
surrender their selves willingly and lovingly to God by following the divine orders and teachings of Islam that were sent to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the Holy Qur’an.
follow the spiritual way of life exemplified by the prophets and messengers without making any separation between them.
discover the spiritual truth that all people carry within their hearts a treasure of divinely entrusted qualities such as beauty, holiness, love, mercy, knowledge, wisdom and strength.
realize that all humans were created to be members of one holy nation and to worship their Creator.
treat all people with respect, love and compassion.
love for others what one loves for oneself
bring healing to others through the qualities of God’s love, peace and mercy by following the divine orders and guidance as given to the messengers
lead a life of divinely-guided service that is most beneficial to God’s creation

migrate from the world of the self to the world of the Creator, walking through all the states and stations to become one with Allah through the path of love, with a heart directly witnessing and praising God in all situations.
