2 Island Maldivian retreat (Brothers only) 29th September - 5th October

Bismillahir-Rahmanir-Raheem

Answer the call of the ocean and the call to brotherhood. We are thrilled to invite you on a uniquely curated 7-day journey to the pristine local islands of Ukulhas and Mathiveri—a trip designed by Muslim brothers, for Muslim brothers. This is more than a vacation; it is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of Allah's creation while enjoying a completely halal environment that respects and upholds our Islamic values.

Embrace a destination where the azure waters, white sandy beaches, and vibrant marine life stand as a magnificent testament to Allah's (s.w.t) artistry. Here, on islands governed by Islamic principles, you can unwind completely, free from the concerns of non-halal food, alcohol, or immodesty. This is the Maldives as it was meant to be experienced: pure, authentic, and spiritually uplifting.
