"Mathabah" means 'a place of return', 'a retreat'. Mathabah serves as a place of return for knowledge, spirituality and inspiration.
Mathabah is a portal to authentic traditional Islamic sciences, knowledge and inspiration. Mathabah Institute is an Islamic institution offering part time courses to students and adults looking to learn traditional Islamic sciences.
Nothing in this is more precious than the blessing of righteous . After Allah ﷻ, they are among the greatest favours He has bestowed upon us. Honour them, serve them, and speak to them with kindness, for Jannah lies in striving to please Allah through dutifulness to them. Cherish them while you still can, no worldly possession can ever compare to their value.
Are we rich in wealth, property, and assets, yet poor in manners and etiquette? True prosperity is measured not just by what we own, but by how we treat others.

Four days in the quiet outdoors north of Toronto, turning our hearts to the ʿIbād ur-Raḥmān, the Servants of the Most Merciful, through an intensive study of Sūrah al-Furqān (63 to 77).
These verses paint a portrait of the believer at their finest: humble in walk, gentle in speech, steadfast in worship, balanced in every affair. We spend four days unpacking what it means to actually live these qualities, not just admire them from a distance.
Tafsīr, ḥadīth, fiqh, and taṣawwuf with a gathering of respected scholars, in a setting built for reflection and brotherhood away from the noise.
📍 Mansfield Outdoor Centre, Mulmur, Ontario
📅 July 31 to August 3, 2026
Seats are limited.
