We're coming to London! Sakinah Retreats is hosting our very first UK day retreat in collaboration with the beautiful Ta Collective.

Theme: The Aligned Self: A Day of Renewal & Intention

Saturday 16 May | 1:30pm – 5:30pm (4 hours) London

We are always becoming — always striving, always seeking. But somewhere between the pace of life, the noise of the world, and the weight of our own expectations, we lose the thread back to what matters most.

As we enter a new Islamic year, we're invited to pause and ask ourselves honestly — are we living with intention? Are we growing in the direction of Allah? Are we showing up in alignment with our role as Muslimahs — as women of purpose, of faith, of depth?

Self-development in our tradition isn't just about becoming a better version of ourselves. It's about becoming closer to Allah — stripping away what distances us from Him and returning, again and again, to what He created us for.

The Aligned Self is a space to do exactly that. To take stock, reset our niyyah, and step into this new year with clarity — rooted in sacred knowledge, held in sisterhood, and anchored in the deen.

This Sakinah day retreat is an intentional gathering for Muslim women who are ready to slow down, come back to their deen, connect with likeminded sisters in a faith aligned space and remember who they are at their core.

We're gathering on the eve of the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah — the most beloved days of the year to Allah — just before the sacred day of Arafah and the Islamic New Year. There is no better moment to pause, realign, and step into what's ahead with intention.

What to expect

An afternoon of Islamic learning with the knowledgeable Ustadha Rahma, structured reflection, intimate sharing circles, dhikr, Islamic inspired breathwork, meditation and the kind of honest, grounded conversation that reminds you you're not alone in this.

This isn't a conference. It isn't a lecture. It's a sisters' gathering — held with intention, centred on sacred knowledge, and designed to leave you clearer than when you walked in and inshAllah connected with like-minded sisters in London.

The day includes

• Teaching sessions with Ustadha Rahma

• Facilitated sharing circles + activities

• Dhikr and Nasheed

• Opportunity to connect and socialise with like minded community

• A beautifully curated space

• Refreshments, desserts and drinks

For the woman who…

Feels the gap between who she is and who she wants to be.

Is craving community that goes deeper than small talk.

Wants to mark the sacred days of Dhul Hijjah with something meaningful.

Wants to enter the Islamic New Year feeling more intentional, aligned and grounded with a clearer purpose.

Hosted by Sakinah Retreats in collaboration with Ta Collective. Limited to 45-50 sisters.
