The annual Tazkiyah Retreat conducted by Shaykh Mokhtar Maghraoui in the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York offers an excellent opportunity for Muslims to experience a unique spiritual awareness from the mundaneness of daily life.

Retreat activities include a combination of teaching and practical sessions covering various ailments of the Nafs (self) and Qalb (heart). The focus is on how to change the state of these inner ailments from our hearts. The retreat emphasizes Ibadah with Fikr (contemplation & reflection) and Dhikr (remembrance of Allah sunhanawa’tala)) in accordance with the Sunnah of Rasulullah (peace be upon him). The sessions are intense and helps one comprehend the beauty of Allah's creation.

Other activities include hiking, canoeing and socio-spiritual networking.
