Muslim American youth, like all youth, are enriched with information and support from their peers. Dar al Islam has supported several youth retreats both on its site and in other environments over the years. We believe that supporting Muslim American youth through the development of their Muslim identity is very important.

Last year's camp was hosted by Daughterz of Eve.  Click here to learn more.

The Purpose of the Camp is to enrich and strengthen the hearts, minds and bodies of American Muslim teenagers. B'idhni'Llah we will achieve this through Deen education, spiritual training and reflection, arts and crafts, and team work, both at the site and during hiking adventures in the surrounding mountains. Campers come to this camp from the United States and Canada. This is a unique camp with many repeat participants and we welcome new campers.

The camp is appropriate for youth between the ages of 12-18. We know that for some parents, this will be the first time that they are sending their children to such a camp. Please use your best judgement in determining whether your child is ready to attend this camp. Most teenagers look forward to these kinds of events; and what better place to let them go to than a Muslim Youth Camp!

Accommodations at the camp are dormitory style. Brothers and sisters are housed separately. All campers need to bring their own bedding (sleeping bag or light cover, and small pillow). All meals are halal. There will be male counselors for the brothers and female counselors for the sisters. This is a cooperative camp, and all will be required to help with food prep, set up & clean up and general maintenance of the camp.

Roundtrip transportation between the Albuquerque airport and the Dar al Islam site is provided.
