Joining the 3-year Sabeel programme was the best decision I ever made. It has helped me to develop my knowledge, worship and character; overall making me more confident as a Muslim. The regularly spaced out retreats throughout the year provided the perfect checkpoint for me to reassess my development and being able to do so alongside like-minded individuals has made it a unique experience. I would highly recommended it to anyone.
Attending my first Sabeel Retreat was a complete change to my spiritual and physical being. Waking up for the night prayers, praying Fajr in congregation, and reciting the Qur'an in circles, all in open lush green fields was something I had never experienced. Socialising with likeminded brothers, sharing stories with one another, advising each on what career paths to take, and on how to improve our characters was all part of this nurturing programme. My worldview then began to shape.
There is something about the whole Sabeel Programme which is genuinely refreshing. I felt a sense of relief after attending just one retreat. The Qiyam, Qur'an circles, brotherhood and learning have change my whole way of thinking. The actual content of the retreats is unique and I was always told that Usul in our religion was crucial but I could never see why this was so critical until I attended Sabeel. Now I feel that for the Muslims in the West a grounding in Usul and attending Sabeel is mandatory.
