Spend the weekend with us in Flagstaff, Arizona!

Come rest, reconnect, and experience the beauty of Allah’s creation on a long weekend in Arizona. Explore breathtaking landscapes, make space for reflection, spend time outdoors, and build meaningful connections with a community of sisters.

This is an opportunity to step away from the familiar, slow down, and reconnect with yourself, your sisters, and Allah SWT while experiencing the beauty of the natural world.

(We have a Brothers Only Retreat in Arizona as well!)
