attendee reflections
Because with Sahra&Soul, you are the heart of this collective.
“The past few days were truly beautiful! I really believe things would have turned out very differently, at least for me, if it had been someone else in charge. From the moment you opened the door and started grabbing our bags from our hands, I knew why it had to be you to bring something like this into our community for Muslim women. Your excellent mannerisms beautifully showed how much serving the deen and the community means to you. You truly put your heart into everything you did for us so much so that people were able to form real connections in just two days. SubhanAllah.”-A.A“The experience with Sahra&Soul was more than I could have ever imagined. The experience was so surreal that I found myself constantly praising and glorifying Allah for allowing me to experience this retreat. Ameena’s dedication and sincerity to ensure this retreat was comfortable for everyone showed through all the accommodations that she provided. I will never forget that gleaming smile. It was a heart touching and emotional experience to see so many Muslim sisters from different backgrounds, cultures, experiences come together and uplift one another and allow each of us hope for a better self. I have gluten allergy and diary intolerance, Ameena ensured gluten free and diary free meals and constantly checked up. The food was 10/10 , nothing better than warm home cooked food . Thank you so much for having me and I will continue to support Sahra&Soul.”

“I loved the retreat, Ameena made it so worth it. The way the whole trip was cultivated to create an atmosphere free of judgement and openness was one of the best parts about the trip. I loved all the activities included in the itinerary, they were perfect for creating new bonds with the other people who joined the retreat.”-H.Simaan in bloom
