You Are Invited To
The fourth Annual
Knowledge Retreat

The message of the Quran is indicative of the purpose behind our inception. Within its texts, you find the morality that is imbedded within our psyche, the guidance gifted to us at birth and the Mercy of Allah (SWT) accessible within our fingertips. We dedicate our lives to the study of the Quran and its knowledge inspires us to learn more.

We are excited to host a 5-𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐊𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐥𝐞𝐝𝐠𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭 to immerse ourselves within the Quran and evaluate its gems and stories. Join us on February 20 - 24th in Detroit, MI for an epic collaboration between Miftaah Institute, Yaqeen, Qalam, AlMaghrib Institute, and the Institute of Knowledge for the 𝑲𝒏𝒐𝒘𝒍𝒆𝒅𝒈𝒆 𝑹𝒆𝒕𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒕: 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑸𝒖𝒓𝒂𝒏𝒊𝒄 𝑬𝒙𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆

    Testimonials

    "The knowledge retreat was absolutely incredible."
    The knowledge retreat was absolutely incredible. The topics were relevant to our society and the speakers did a wonderful job connecting the Quran back to our lives and teaching us how we can connect with the words of Allah. I think the knowledge retreat achieved a very important thing, which is reminding all of us what is really important in this world - which is worshiping Allah with the most sincerity. Personally, I left the retreat with a newfound respect for the beauty, elegance, and power of the Quran. Every single topic and Q&A was powerful, beneficial, and inspiring. Also, Miftah did a wonderful job organizing the event and keeping it on schedule. I absolutely look forward to the next knowledge retreat.

    "Alhamdulillah for Allah SWT has allowed us to attend this event"
    This year's Knowledge Retreat was truly an extraordinary event. Seeing so many amazing scholars in one place give class after class, making us hear what we needed to hear truly made my spiritual heart grow (and I was not the only one). Even outside the actual classes, the different events Miftaah held like the speakers' corner, the Q&A, the Qiyam, etc. were all amazing as well. It allowed us to grow guidance and in knowledge. Alhamdulillah for Allah SWT has allowed us to attend this event and JazakAllah Khair to Miftaah for hosting such an event.

    "This was one of the best experiences of my life Alhamdulillah"
    This was one of the best experiences of my life Alhamdulillah. I cried at least once every day because of how each and every speaker touched my heart with their words. It was a very emotional experience where I have been left impacted for the better even after returning home. The topics were very relevant to today's day and age. It was my first time at Miftaah and I truly felt at home. Jazakumallahu Khairan for this much-needed knowledge retreat!
