FAQs
Is this for both Brothers & Sisters?
For the current time, Stronger Together Retreats are only available for the brother's program.
Why is the Personal Statement required?
For a couple of reasons. We want to learn more about you and understand what you hope to benefit in this Retreat and see what you wish to contribute to our program. Secondly, due to limited space, we want to give an opportunity to our weekly Halaqah participants and select those who demonstrate a need to benefit from this program and are able to contribute to the overall experience of our Retreat.
Are there any travel advisories or other requirements?
There are currently no travel advisories to our destination in Southwest Florida. Because this is not an intranational trip, there are no travel vaccinations required nor a Passport. Only a Valid State ID or Driver's License for travel.
What is the purpose of Stronger Together Retreats and what should I look forward to?
The purpose of our year-round retreats organized by our brothers in Stronger Together Initiatives with the will of the Allah swt is to undertake Islamic-themed journeys throughout the country in building relationships and seeking beneficial knowledge. You should look forward to this experience as travel and undertaking journeys together strengthen our bonds of brotherhood and exposes us to explore the world in order to gain new insights and become well-rounded in our understandings.
What is Included in the program?
The program, flight, hotel, and transportation in SoCal.
I live in a state outside of the current Stronger Together presence. Can I participate?
Stronger Together as a collective is open to everyone, we believe in inclusivity as a part of our Islamic values. However, as a matter of logistical planning. It will not be possible for us to accommodate individuals outside of Minnesota for now. Inshallah, we hope to have more states and communities join us in this kheir and look forward to welcoming all brothers.
