The Reframe
Retreat
Step away from the noise. Return with a clearer perspective. A week of archery, riding and training for Muslim boys 9 to 16.
Sign up for the Reframe RetreatFor parents of boys who need more than a screen.
You already see it. A son who is sharp and good-hearted, losing hours to a phone, restless, stuck in habits he didn't choose.
Futuwwah 5 is a program for Muslim boys 9 to 16, built on futuwwah, the Islamic tradition of noble character. Boys learn it by doing: archery, riding, martial arts and time outside, with teachers who live what they teach.
The Reframe Retreat is where it starts. A week away from the noise, and a boy who comes home steadier.
Off the screen and into the wild
Old habits to new patterns
Restless to steady
Futuwwah as a noble character, built by doing.
Recite what has been revealed to you of the Book and establish prayer. Indeed, prayer prohibits immorality and wrongdoing, and the remembrance of Allah is greater.
Surah Al-Ankabut 29:45
The Reframe Retreat
Step away from the noise. Return with a clearer perspective.
Inspired by the young believers in Surah al-Kahf who sought refuge and asked Allah for mercy and guidance, The Reframe Retreat invites us to step away from distraction and reconsider how we live, train, and serve.
Through archery, horseback riding, martial arts, and learning the practice of halal slaughter, we bring faith into practice, cultivating strength, presence, and character. With the Prophet ﷺ as our guiding example, we seek to see our responsibilities more clearly and return to daily life with renewed intention.
