The Specific Working Methods of the Zahuri Sufi* Website
1. The website will serve as a means of propagating its ideals by publishing information and
material on the world wide web which is accessible, free of charge, to those who have access to the
world wide web. It is hoped such material will be updated frequently .
2. The information or material will also be published in hard copy form for those who do not have
such computer access. In this case costs of postage etc. may apply. Subject to a limit of 100 pages.
3. The publication of material on the website by members will be considered by the founding
members of the website, provided it is in accord with the ideals expressed in the Mission Statement.
4. Access to the site is of course available free to any person who is interested. Individuals or
institutions may apply for membership which is open to all who are in accord with our ideals
irrespective of religious, political, sexual, social, class, colour, national or ethnic distinctions or other
similair factors which divide man from man. Membership requires a token payment (any
denomination (however small) coin or note available in the members own country). Full membership
can be obtained by letter requesting this with coin or note.
5. Membership does not imply any religious, social, political or sectarian affiliation but does imply a
commitment to the ideals expressed above. Membership of individuals, groups or companies will be
published on the site, unless a request not to do so is received. The founders of the Zahuri website
reserve the right to refuse or to withdraw membership without giving any reason.
6. The Zahuri website will not seek to solicit financial contributions of any kind (whether for
charitable purposes or otherwise) but may charge for necessary costs such as postage for hard
copy. NB this does not apply to the publication of books whether on the www or conventional books.
7. Individuals or institutions who wish to contribute materially may do so, with the agreement of the
founding members (by for example purchasing web-space, computer software or paper for hard
copy), but not in such a way that any individual or group may personally or severally benefit
materially by such contributions. Any such contributions will be properly processed with receipts
provided and accounts kept.
8. The Zahuri website will host Sharib Press and other similair publishing companies or other
ventures where incidental commercial factors may be involved, but will not advertise commercially
oriented companies for profit. Any company (or individual) that is approved to publish on the site
and whose use of it also has a commercial component, trades independently of the website, which
takes no responsibility for, or profits from, their transactions. The founding members will take every
precaution in assuring themselves of the ethical quality of any such company.
9. The Zahuri website will respect the confidentiality of members or contributors when this is
requested.
10. Any alteration to this document found to be necessary will be made only by agreement of the
founding members and published openly in the website.
