Treading the Path: Surviving as a Muslim in the West

The Treading the Path three-day retreat was the first program ever organized by Darul Hikmah. By the grace of Allah, the retreat was a smashing success. Although the program was expected to be small and advertisement was minimal, a huge crowd of youth and adults alike attended the three-day gathering.

Sleeping at the masjid and fulfilling the Sunnah of i'tikaf was part of the program and prominent scholars from around the country, including Shaykh Abdur Rahman ibn Yusuf Mangera, Shaykh Amin Kholwadia, and Shaykh Abdoor Rahman Khan attended.
