Al Balagh Tazkiya Retreat Camp

A Brief Pause from Work and Family to Increase Your Connection with Allah

Join us from 22nd August 11:00 AM to 25th August 11:00 AM for an unparalleled spiritual journey at the Tazkiya Retreat Camp. This unique retreat is a golden opportunity to deepen your connection with Allah (SWT), far from the distractions of daily life. What makes this retreat even more special is its breathtaking setting — nestled in the heart of the Swiss Alps, in the quiet and scenic village of Marbach, Switzerland. Surrounded by towering mountains, lush meadows, and crisp alpine air, the location itself becomes part of the spiritual experience, allowing your heart and soul to breathe freely. This retreat is a chance to leave behind the noise of modern life and dedicate yourself fully to Allah (SWT). With a full daily programme from Tahajjud to Isha, it focuses on dhikr, prayer, and inner reflection — helping you cleanse the heart, strengthen your bond with your Creator, and rediscover spiritual purpose.

In the Esteemed Company of Scholars and Pious Figures ...

The retreat is graced by the presence of respected Mashāyikh and ‘Ulamāʾ, offering wisdom, companionship, and direction for your spiritual development. Engage in enriching discussions, heartfelt reminders, and reflective moments under the guidance of those who have walked the path of Tazkiyah before you. Their presence will not only inspire but also offer practical steps toward self-improvement, sincerity, and a more conscious relationship with Allah. The opportunity to sit in the company of such scholars is a blessing not to be missed.

A Transformative Experience Awaits

This four-day retreat is designed to be transformational — spiritually, mentally, and emotionally. You will return not just with memories, but with a renewed sense of purpose, practical spiritual habits, and a deeper connection with Allah (SWT). Experience the stillness of the mountains, the sweetness of worship, and the brotherhood of sincere seekers. This is more than a camp — it is a journey of awakening and alignment. Don’t miss this exclusive opportunity to join a gathering that could become a milestone in your spiritual life. Take this step closer to Allah (SWT), and let this retreat be a turning point in your pursuit of Tazkiyah.
