HIRA Intensive 2025 is here!
This year's HIRA Intensive course will be held July 6-27, 2025 in Flint, Michigan. The Beloved Prophet (s) retreated to the Cave of Hira as a place of solitude to reflect upon himself and build his relationship with his Creator. In the same light, MYNA’s Hira Intensive calls upon youth to dedicate time towards strengthening their mind, body, and soul through a deeper understanding of the foundations of faith. From studying tafsir and fiqh to understanding who our Creator is, who His Prophet (s) is, and who we are, this program aims to equip the youth of today with the knowledge and skills to navigate the modern world around them.
Dates: July 6-27, 2025
Fee for the 3 weeks: $1999
Early Bird: $1799 until April 28, 2025

Introducing MYNA's Summer Camp 2025 Theme:
Rooted in Revelation - Embodying the Quran’s Message in Every Step
The Quran isn’t just meant to be recited, it’s meant to be lived. The Prophet SAW was described as a "walking Quran," and as his followers, we are called to embody its message in our actions, character, and daily decisions. This camp will focus on applying the Quran’s lessons to real life, strengthening our faith, improving our relationships, and making ethical choices. Through reflection, discussion, and action, we’ll explore how to turn the Quran’s guidance into a lived reality.It’s time to live by the Quran, not just in words, but in every step.
