D&T Moon: The Eclipse Prayer w/ Sh. Suhail Mulla
2022-05-15 19:30 - 21:30 (America/Los_Angeles) | Islamic Society of West Valley, 7060 Owensmouth Ave., Canoga Park, CA, 91304, United States
Men and women of all ages
Join the Dust and Tribe Moonthusiasts as we gather with Shaykh Suhail Mulla at the Islamic Society of West Valley to revive the sunnah of the eclipse prayer, salat al-khusuf.
The Prophet said, may the peace and blessings of God be upon him:
“The sun and the moon do not eclipse because of someone’s death or life but they are two signs amongst the signs of God, so pray whenever you see them.”
Muslims strike the balance, pushing back against a secularized hyperrational culture that denies sacred mystery while also avoiding baseless superstition. All of this is contained in the eclipse prayer as we celebrate the supreme beauty of calculable celestial rhythms and honor the Merciful Creator in the process.
Interested participants are welcome to join us for dinner at nearby Lemongrass Thai-Halal at 5 pm before heading over to the Islamic Society of West Valley for the sunset prayer and some brief reflections before commencing with the eclipse prayer, God willing.
If inclined and able, feel free to bring your telescope or binoculars for observation of the eclipse.
This is a free event open to all ages. Expenses associated with dinner will not be covered.

D&T(een): Wilderness Weekend with Islah LA
2022-03-18 - 2022-03-20 | Sage Hill Group Camp, G6V6+5P, Santa Barbara, CA, United States
For enrollees and alumni of Islah Academy 13+ only
Adventure Score: 1
This event is sponsored in part by Street Tawa BBQ Halal Brisket Sandwiches
“As you walk look around, assess where you are, reflect on where you have been, and dream of where you are going. Every moment of the present contains the seeds of opportunity for change. Your life is an adventure. Live it fully.”
John Francis, the Planetwalker
Dust and Tribe is proud to partner with Islah LA for a weekend of wilderness exploration designed to revive, renew, and restore our faith in God through engagement with His creation.
Inspired and informed by Islah Academy’s insistence on experiential learning, Dust and Tribe has curated an adventure that will take our youth from the inner city of South Los Angeles to the coast of Santa Barbara and into the foothills of the Los Padres National Forest for three days and two nights of camping along the Santa Ynez River.
Day 1
We gather at Islah LA on Friday, March 18th where our shuttle and volunteers will transport participants to the tide pools of Devereux Beach in Isla Vista. We’ll explore and discuss life in the intertidal zone while reviewing the natural history of the local area before moving into the water for a “fish-eye” view from our paddleboards.
All equipment including wetsuits and flotation vests will be provided along with volunteer mentors to make sure everyone stays safe while having fun. And when it’s time to dry off, we’ll enjoy a picnic lunch on the beach before boarding our shuttle and heading into the foothills of the Los Padres National Forest where we will make camp and have dinner along the banks of the Santa Ynez River.
Day 2
After a hot breakfast, we’ll set out into the surrounding countryside to explore the local environs. We’ll learn about native edible and medicinal plants and their uses by the indigenous Chumash. We’ll have lunch in the field before returning to camp.
The bold among us may want to take a nap before dinner and the sunset prayer because tonight we hike the forest under a full moon. This will be a night to remember as we pick our way through the silvery light and wonder- are we predator or prey?
Day 3
We wake to another hot breakfast and prepare to end our time together with a gratitude exercise to cement the learning that God Most High has allowed while invoking blessings upon all who worked to bring this vision to light. Once complete, we board our shuttle for the trip back to Islah LA.
This is a coed event that will be chaperoned by representatives from the Islah LA community along with the facilitators of Dust and Tribe and Muslim students from nearby UCSB.
Fees include all halal meals, all camping equipment, transportation to and from Islah LA, two WFR certified wilderness guides, paddleboards, wetsuits, personal flotation devices, lifeguards, and a cadre of volunteers and chaperones committed to hosting our young guests in accordance with the highest standards of Islamic etiquette.
There are only 5 female and 5 male spots available.

D&T Grrrl! Santa Cruz Island Adventure
2022-03-04 - 2022-03-06 | Channel Islands National Park, 6PVM+MW, Ventura, CA, United States
Women 16+
All creeds welcome.
Adventure Score: 1
Our signature women’s trip is back: two nights and three days on stunning Santa Cruz Island off the coast of Ventura.
Embark on a three-hour channel crossing to the crown jewel of the Channel Islands, the place the indigenous Chumash called Limuw. Whales and dolphins are apt to frolic in your wake, the descendants, according to Chumash legend, of those men and women who fell from the Rainbow Bridge connecting the island to the mainland.
It is a place of origins. For the Chumash, this was the beginning of creation, their people arising from the seeds of the Magic Plant. For you, it is the beginning of discovery, the grounding of self within creation, and the consolidation of communal bonds in the flourish of sisterhood.
You will hike in the mile or so from your landing at the beach to your campsite where you will pitch your tents and fall in love with the milky oats that grow waist high and the morning glories that twist around your ankles, with the foxes that slink and steal, and with the eagles that soar and sail. Miles of trails and secluded rocky coves beckon you to explore and play.
Our lead facilitator is wilderness first-aid certified and will build an itinerary around your interests and aptitudes that will including hiking, water play, native plant identification, and stargazing- all contextualized within the sacred teachings of our Islamic framework.
All skill and fitness levels are welcome. No previous camping experience required- we will walk with you through the entire process.
There are only 13 spots available. This event will cancel if fewer than four registered participants by 2/25/2022.
COVID-19: We are committed to keeping all participants healthy through smaller groups and the implementation of rigorous medical pre-screening. Once gathered, social distancing and the wearing of masks will neither be enforced nor discouraged.
Book your spot with a 50% deposit ($150) that is fully refundable up to 60 days prior to our trip (refund deadline Monday 1/3/2022). Refunds will not be offered after the aforementioned date except in cases of a documented or suspected COVID infection within 14 days of our event.

Need gear? See our Rentals page for options.
Don’t want to hassle with food? We’re happy to put together a 2000 calorie/day vegetarian meal bundle to get you through the weekend. The bundle includes pasta and quinoa-based entrees, oatmeal, granola, and lots of chocolate, nut-butters, and fat-rich coconut strips to fuel your adventure!

D&T Grind: Primal California
2022-01-15 - 2022-01-17 | Henry W. Coe State Park, 5HR7+HJ, Morgan Hill, CA
Men and women 16+
All creeds welcome.
Adventure Score: 2
There is no more iconic landscape than the rolling, verdant grasslands of California. Long before gold was discovered, the honeyed hues of an oak-studded hillside were enough to cement California’s aurulent reputation; for it is the Golden State.
Except in the winter. In this time, much of California is a misty emerald.
And we invite you to savor this damp and cold jewel for three days and two nights in California’s Henry W. Coe State Park.
D&T Grind is our winter coed backpacking adventure where we ask men and women to face adversity together. Cold temperatures, wet weather, swollen creeks, impassable routes, long miles, and steep climbs are only a few of the challenges we will embrace as we rediscover what it means to be sisters and brothers in faith.
This is a far cry from the lecture halls and temple sermons.
This is lived experience where all that you are will become apparent to yourself and others, coaxed into the dim winter light by the rigors of novelty and fatigue.
Grind will humiliate the arrogant and reward the selfless. Against the backdrop of wet earth and grey sky, our insignificance is an undeniable mandate for the humble to assist one another and press on. Even so, the haughtiness within us may rue the day, grumbling for a return to the small, safe spaces that affirm our sense of grandeur and control.
Grind is a lesson. Grind is a teacher. Grind is a gift.
You are responsible for your food, gear, and transportation. We will provide the logistics, expertise, and mentorship.
And together, God willing, we’ll get through this.
COVID-19: We are committed to keeping all participants healthy through smaller groups and the implementation of rigorous medical pre-screening. Once gathered, social distancing and the wearing of masks will neither be enforced nor discouraged.
Participants should be confident in their ability to carry 40 pounds while hiking 10 miles/day.
Not sure you can?
Book your spot with a 50% deposit ($150) that is fully refundable up to 60 days prior to our trip (refund deadline Tuesday 11/16/2021). Refunds will not be offered after the aforementioned date except in cases of a documented or suspected COVID infection within 14 days of our event.

D&T X: Dove Hunt for Beginners
2021-11-12 - 2021-11-15 | Carizzo Plain National Monument, 17495 Soda Lake Rd., California Valley, CA, 93453, United States
For men 18+
All creeds welcome.
Adventure Score: 2
Recognized by men of our way is the obligation to provide. It is a legacy we share with the indigenous men of California, many of whom would present their initial kills to their tribe as a declaration of their maturity and eligibility for marriage.
Modernity has changed the manner in which we provide. As we settle into our roles as wage-earners, we adapt to our new environment and lose essential faculties in the process. Our vision is weaker. We no longer understand what we are smelling. Our ears have lost their sensitivity and we move through the land with loud, heavy feet.
In addition, we have become completely disconnected from the sources of our food, trading this crucial awareness for convenience and subsidizing the horrors of unconscionable agribusiness with every bite of store-bought meat.
We’re inviting a handful of men to reconsider all of this.
For the first time ever, Dust and Tribe is offering a guided hunt. We will establish a group camp near Bakersfield, California. You are responsible to provide your own gun, camping gear, and food. We’ll show you where the birds are and how to harvest, dress, and prepare them.
Your first step is to take your online California Hunter Safety Course.
Once completed, you will need to pay for your Resident Hunting License and Upland Game Bird Validations here.
Once you have your hunting license, you must purchase or otherwise acquire your own shotgun and ammunition. We will link participants with our hunting mentor to assist you in making your selection.
On Friday, November 12th, we will establish our group camp outside of Bakersfield, California. We will spend this day getting to know one another and our firearms, taking the time to learn how to clean, care for, and fire our weapons.
Saturday November 13th is our hunting day. We will fan out after the predawn prayer to begin our search for dove. With God’s permission, we will break midday to learn how to gut and clean our catch as we regroup and begin our preparations for a second evening hunt, possibly for quail.
We’ll continue hunting through Sunday and break camp on Monday, November 15th, circling up to reflect and share gratitude for our time together, the skills acquired, and the abundance of God’s provision.
Registered participants will receive a gear and supply list.
COVID-19: We are committed to keeping all participants healthy through smaller groups and the implementation of rigorous medical pre-screening, including a negative COVID test within the 72 hours prior to our initial gathering day. Once gathered, social distancing and the wearing of masks will neither be enforced nor discouraged.

There are only five spots available.
Book your hunt with a 50% deposit ($150) that is fully refundable up to 60 days prior to our hunt (refund deadline Tuesday 9/14/2021).

D&T Lite: Intro to Backpacking 1.0
2021-10-09 10:00 - 2021-10-10 17:00 | Lower Moro Parking Lot, Crystal Cove State Park, H56J+XH Laguna Beach, California, United States
Men and women 16+
All creeds welcome.
We’re very excited to offer a series of introductory backpacking experiences for those of you curious about what it takes to prepare for the backcountry.
We’ll provide the gear, food, and expertise. You will need to provide carrying capacity for a minimum of one gallon of water (bladder, bottles, or collapsible jug).
No previous backpacking experience or wilderness knowledge is required. We won’t be traveling far: only three miles in and three miles out.
That doesn’t mean it will be easy.
We’ve got a bit of a climb to get to camp, but it will be worth it. And we’ll likely forget the pain as we prepare our dinner and watch the sunset from bluffs overlooking Crystal Cove State Park.
Over the course of the weekend we’ll talk about gear selection, how to pack for short and long trips, and general wilderness preparedness. You’ll learn how to set up a tent, filter water, and use a camp stove.
But that’s not the best part.
The best part is the conversations we’ll have, the primal thrill of sleeping under the stars and, for those who practice, the immense reward for prayers offered in the wilderness.
COVID-19: We are committed to keeping all participants healthy through smaller groups and the implementation of rigorous medical pre-screening, including a negative COVID test within the 72 hours prior to our initial gathering day. Once gathered, social distancing and the wearing of masks will neither be enforced nor discouraged.

Book your spot with a 50% deposit ($100) that is fully refundable up to 28 days prior to our trip (refund deadline Tuesday 9/11/2021). Refunds will not be offered after the aforementioned date except in cases of a documented or suspected COVID infection within 14 days of our event.

D&T Lite: Emergency Roadside Repair
2021-08-22 10:00 - 14:00 | Anaheim Industrial Lot, Anaheim, CA, 92806, United States
For ages 16+
All creeds welcome.
Before the adventure starts, you gotta get there. But what happens if you blow a tire? What if the car won’t start? What about the sign that says you need chains before you can go any further?
Now what?
Spend the day with us learning how to diagnose and manage these all-too-common emergencies in a fun, low-pressure, hands-on workshop that will leave you feeling empowered and ready to plan your next big outing, God willing.
We’ll cover a number of pre-trip considerations including the inspection and maintenance of tires, belts, hoses, wiper blades, and fluid levels.
In addition, we’ll review the essentials of how to manage the most common roadside emergencies including blown tires, dead batteries, and minor electrical complications.
Under our guidance and using our tools where appropriate, you will explore and tinker with your personal vehicle. Participants will need to provide the make and model of their automobile upon registration to allow for targeted instruction and practice. Please advise us if your vehicle does not have a factory jack and spare.
Snacks and cold drinks will be provided.
Instruction will take place on a private lot in an industrial area of Anaheim, California. The exact address will be provided upon registration.
Bathrooms will not be available on-site, though we will have access to a portable toilet.
COVID-19: We are committed to keeping all participants healthy through smaller groups and the implementation of rigorous medical pre-screening. Once gathered, social distancing and the wearing of masks will neither be enforced nor discouraged.

D&T Lite: Family Climb
2021-06-27 10:00 - 15:00 | Stoney Point Park, 79FX+C2 Chatsworth, Los Angeles, CA, United States
For adults and children of all ages.
All creeds welcome.
Rock climbing integrates mind and body like few other activities. There are numerous studies documenting the physical and mental health benefits of rock climbing for men, women, and children. These benefits include enhanced self-esteem and confidence, improved mental focus, physical conditioning, and even relief from depression and anxiety.
But it can be intimidating. All of those ropes and equipment and those hard, scary, jagged places!
We want to help you and your family move past that intimidation and into discovery of what could evolve into the greatest passion of your life.
Join us for our family climbing day at Stoney Point Park in Chatsworth, California. We’ll walk you through the basics of climbing safety including:

what kind of gear you need to get started in climbing
how to communicate with your climbing partner
and how to tie basic knots for maximum safety

Gear Requirements (bring your own or share ours):

Climbing shoes
Climbing harness
Climbing helmet

We will have all other gear and two climbing mentors on site. Spots are limited to a maximum of 12 persons.
Snacks and cold drinks will be provided.
Bring lunch and plenty of water. Bathrooms are located at a separate park a short drive away.
COVID-19: We are committed to keeping all participants healthy through smaller groups and adherence to city park COVID regulations which currently require the wearing of a mask.

This event has been cancelled due to predicted temperatures in excess of 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

D&T Serve: Beach Clean-Up
2021-06-26 08:30 - 12:30 | Bluff Park, QR7M+FW Long Beach, CA, United States
A Muslim is a custodian, a keeper of trusts, and a steward over creation. Through D&T Serve, you can be all of those things while having a good time with good people and even earn some cool swag in the process.
This time we’re heading to Long Beach, California to clean the place up.
We’ll meet at Bluff Park. Participants are encouraged to bring their own gardening or dish gloves and buckets to minimize our dependence on single-use plastics, but we’ll have disposable gloves and garbage bags on-hand just in case.
Bring snacks, water, sunscreen, and hand-sanitizer. We’ve got a few pickers to hand out to the early arrivals, so be prompt and you’ll get a fancy tool.
And if we get done early we’ll hang out and have a good time.
Got a D&T Clan Card?
If you do, you’ll earn one D&T Coin for every hour cleaning. Accumulate those coins and cash them out for stickers, water bottles, t-shirts and other sweet, sweet D&T swag.
COVID-19: We are committed to keeping all participants healthy through smaller groups, limited physical contact and, for those inclined, the wearing of a mask.

D&T Grrrl! Further
2021-03-12 08:00 - 2021-03-14 14:30 | Channel Islands National Park, 6PVM+MW, Ventura, CA, United States
Have you ever wanted to be the first?
This is Santa Rosa Island and we’ve never been here before. Not once. Not even in a dream.
Called Wima by the indigenous Chumash and located 40 nautical miles off the coast of Ventura, California, she is the second largest of the Channel Islands. Whales and sharks plow through the Santa Barbara Channel between you and the mainland. Kelp beds teeming with aquatic life hang suspended in the pristine waters surrounding the island. There are six plants here that are found nowhere else in the world. The pygmy mammoth once roamed here, but they long ago left it to the foxes, the skunks, and the mice.
And now to only a very few of you. Because this adventure is open to fifteen women only, and you will be taken through it further than you ever imagined.
It’s a two and a half hour boat ride from the Ventura Harbor and you’ll have to be there before dawn. The crossing is glorious with great pods of bottle-nose dolphins often frolicking in your wake.
But stepping onto the island will have a special kind of gravity. The boat will leave you there. It will be back in three days time to bring you back home, but you know about the unpredictable spring swells. Many a ship have gone down in the channel and no captain worth his salt is going to take a chance on foul weather.
Bring extra food, because you may need to hunker down.
The island is yours.

COVID-19: We are committed to keeping all participants healthy through smaller groups and the implementation of rigorous medical pre-screening. Once gathered, social distancing and the wearing of masks will neither be enforced nor discouraged.
Your non-refundable deposit of $150 secures your spot.

The tent will be awarded to the individual who accumulates the most points over the eight-week Virtual Adventure Series.

Your First Step
You are born alone. You will die alone. And you will take this First Step alone.
Khalwa, or spiritual seclusion, is an established principle in the Islamic faith tradition with a number of prophets, messengers, and saints having taken to the wilderness alone. But rather than talk about it, we want you to experience it.
Prepare yourself (and only yourself) for a day on the trail. Just you and the wilderness.
You are going on a 5-mile solo hike and the rules are simple: hike the entirety of the route alone.
This is your opportunity to step away from the chatter and distractions of family and society and to reconnect with the throbbing rhythm at the center of it all: the beating of your own heart.
Adventure validation requires that you submit via email or post:

A map of your route, a (minimum) 5-mile solo hike* where the entirety of the distance is without pavement of any sort
A written reflection of no less than 100 words

1 and 2 received between 2/13/2021 and 2/26/2021 will earn you one point in the Steps Virtual Adventure Series.
A bonus-point matrix will be sent to participants on Saturday, February 13th. The matrix will reveal several opportunities to enhance your hiking experience and earn the extra points you need to put you ahead of the competition. Some bonus points will be easy to earn. Others may be near-impossible, but those are the points that will separate the wheat from the chaff.
With more than twenty possible bonus points, here’s a small preview of the matrix:

First Step validation submissions received before 2/13/2021 and after 2/26/2021 will not be considered.
And here are two ways to pull ahead of the pack right now:

The first five people to register will earn one bonus point.
Earn another bonus point for each person you refer that completes all or any part of the D&T Steps Virtual Adventure Series.

*participating women may be accompanied by a mahram.
Your participation fee of $40 gets you access to the First Step only.

Your Second Step
You are linked to others through ties of blood, marriage, and guardianship. It’s time to honor those links.

Your Third Step
We are all linked to one another through communal bonds that we often find convenient to ignore. Our adopted identities ground us in an individual narrative that, while giving us personal meaning, may also serve to cut us off from our other brothers and sisters in humanity. It’s time to get to know one another.
The best of people are those who bring the most benefit to mankind.

D&T Grind: Lust for Gold
2021-01-14 08:00 - 2021-01-16 12:00 | Superstition Mountains, 9MX2+2V Gold Canyon, Arizona, Gold Canyon, AZ, 85118, United States
It was the farmers that gave it the name: Superstition Mountains.
They heard talk from the indigenous Pima who told them about strange sounds, people who disappeared, and unexplained deaths. Among some Apache is the belief that within these mountains can be found the very portal to hell, the exhalations of which send wind and sand raging across the Arizona desert.
The farmers figured it was all just superstition.
But then there was the Dutchman.
His name was Jacob Waltz and he is said to have found the lost gold mines of the Peralta family, most of whom where butchered by an Apache party at a place they now call the Massacre Grounds. Waltz is said to have mined the Peralta gold and laid it up in hidden mountain caches.
He was on his deathbed before he told another soul where that gold lay hidden. Her name was Julia Thomas, but she never found the gold. No one has.
But the multitudes who have tried and failed have left more stories, and bodies, on these mountains than any place I know.
Most say the gold is near Weaver’s Needle.
And that’s where we’re headed.
This trip is open to five men and five women ages 16 and up. All creeds are welcome.
D&T Grind is our winter event where we intentionally put ourselves into challenging situations to force teamwork across genders.
Out here, we’re brother and sister.
This is a 20-mile loop hike that will have us circumnavigating Weaver’s Needle. Water is sparse in this desert environment and our route, much of it off-trail, will be dictated by our hunt for hidden springs.
And maybe the Lost Dutchman’s Gold.
This will be a proper adventure. Are you up for it?
Here are a few things to ask yourself:

Do I feel confident about my ability to hike for 10 miles across varied terrain with a loaded pack in excess of 30 pounds?
If not, will I commit myself to a training regimen that will give me that confidence?
Am I willing to sacrifice creature comforts, including warmth, in order to find hidden reserves of impossible beauty within me and all around me?
Am I ready to pee outside?
Am I ready to sacrifice for the welfare of my companions, sharing food, water, and off-loading packs for the ill or otherwise compromised?

D&T Grind is a crucible and the most delicate and wonderful things are forged here.
Whether or not we find that Dutchman’s gold, each of us is likely to find something much more precious.

COVID-19: We are committed to keeping all participants healthy through smaller groups and the implementation of rigorous medical pre-screening. Once gathered, social distancing and the wearing of masks will neither be enforced nor discouraged.
Your non-refundable deposit of $100 secures your spot.

D&T Kin: Gypsy Summer '20
2020-07-23 - 2020-07-30 | CA
We’ve got a classic coastal California road-trip planned for you and your family this summer, and we’re doing it caravan-style!
We’ll spend a week driving and camping along the beaches and redwoods of coastal California, with a plan to be back in our home communities just in time to celebrate Eid al-Adha, the Festival of Sacrifice.
Think about that. Traveling up and down the coast with our brothers and sisters in faith, honoring our daily prayers all the way- it will be like our own little pilgrimage for those of us not making the Hajj this year.
And what an incredible itinerary!
We’ll start out camping along the beach just north of Malibu at Point Mugu before driving inland for two nights in one of our nation’s newest national parks: Pinnacles.
Pinnacles is a geological wonder with volcanic rock formations and caves to explore. I expect the days will be hot, but we’ve got a swimming pool in camp to keep us cool, God willing.
From there we make our way back to the coast, to the seaside villages of Carmel and Monterey where we can grab coffee, pastries, and maybe take an early dinner along Cannery Row, made famous by that greatest of American authors, John Steinbeck.
From there, we continue up north to California’s oldest state park, Big Basin Redwoods in the heart of the Santa Cruz mountains. We’ll spend a night there before moving on to Humboldt Redwoods State Park for a night along the Eel River and more of those glorious, ancient trees.
That’s our turn-around point. Driving south now, we’ll swing through the artist-colony of Mendocino for some trinkets and refreshment before making camp along the beach at Salt Point.
In the morning, we’ll make a beeline for Point Reyes Station for a required stop at the legendary Cowgirl Creamery for their organic artisan cheeses.
Next, we’ve got a long and winding drive through Big Sur, where we’ll take in some of the most dramatic coastal vistas in all of California before settling in for our final night together at Hearst San Simeon State Park, famous for its proximity to elephant seal rookeries and a media mogul’s quirky castle.
It’s an ambitious itinerary replete with sunrise hikes and campfire conversations, with open skies, fresh air, and excellent company. All but one of our campsites have showers. Most have flush toilets, and all have running water.
And if you can’t make the whole trip, feel free to break off or join in whenever and wherever you like!
Bring your family. Bring your friends. With nights spent in five state parks and one national park, this is going to be a week on the road that none of us will ever forget, may God protect us and keep us close for His sake.
Due to current public health recommendations to help limit the spread of COVID-19, this trip has been cancelled.

D&T Rites: Moonfast (father/son)
2020-06-04 - 2020-06-06 | Mount San Jacinto, R87C+Q8, Palm Springs, CA, United States
for fathers and their sons ages 13 and up

Join me and Shaykh Suhail Mulla for this transitional journey as we honor our young men.
To mark our sons passing into manhood, we will embark on an adventure that will bring together the sacred Islamic practice of fasting during the “white days” with elements from our blessed Prophet’s Night Journey, may God bless him and give him peace.
Day 1: The day just before the full moon, this is our mirth day, and the last day of boyhood. We will mark this through slaughter. Then, while fasting, fathers and sons will make the short hike to our campsite, learning some basic wilderness skills along the way. Once in camp, we will wait for sunset before breaking our fast and circling up for a thorough grounding in the basics of religious practice and an exploration of manhood as it relates to our experience as Muslims living in the West.
Day 2: The day of the full moon, this is the day of transition. Resuming our fast, we make our way to our final campsite just a few miles short of the summit. While the sun is out, our sons may not speak other than to communicate need. This is the time for fathers to pass on what they will freely and without interruption. Upon making camp, we will await sunset at which point we break our fast and our sons may speak. This is their time to respond to all they’ve heard and to seek clarity in preparation for their Night Journey.
Upon the rising of the full moon, our sons will summit the mountain. Fathers will remain at camp.
Day 3: The day after the full moon, this is the day of receiving. We will resume our fast and our sons, having returned from the mountaintop as men, will lead us down and off the mountain. From there we will caravan to a sunset reception where they will be honored and each of them will relate their story of transition.
Throughout the journey, we will review the essentials of Islamic practice (fard ayn) to equip our sons for the obligations of religious life.
Due to current public health recommendations to help limit the spread of COVID-19, this trip has been cancelled.

D&T Grrrl! 2020
2020-04-02 - 2020-04-05 | Lake Powell, 100 Lake Shore Dr., Page, AZ, 86040, United States
a live-aboard adventure just for women

There is a floating home waiting for you and your friends in the frigid spring waters of Lake Powell.
You can play pirate as you pilot your houseboat into the hidden coves and nooks of the gnarled shoreline. If it’s not your turn at the wheel, head down below deck for a nap. Or step into the full kitchen to prepare a meal with your mates. Take a shower in one of two full bathrooms, or get up top and let the wind blow through your hair.
Because this is your lake. Head into open water or drop anchor off a sheltered beach and enjoy the solitude while reveling in the company of your sisters. Pitch a tent and spend the night on the water’s edge. Or slip back into one of the comfortable berths and let the current rock you to sleep.
Your choice. You and your sisters will collaborate on an itinerary that can include boating, swimming, fishing, hiking, rock climbing, and camping. Or you can just relax with a DVD and some popcorn.
Before dawn on the morning of Thursday, April 2nd, our shuttle will take you and your friends on an eight-hour drive from southern California to the Wahweap Marina in Arizona. Once there, we’ll load the food and gear that you provide onto the 53-foot houseboat that you will call home for the next three nights and three days. You’ll learn the finer points of piloting and beaching your watercraft before heading out for adventure and discovery!
Upon your return to the marina on Sunday, April 5th, we will load your gear back into the shuttle for the long ride home, God willing.
Due to current public health recommendations to help limit the spread of COVID-19, this trip has been cancelled.

D&T Rise: Men in Recovery (Divorce)
2020-02-22 - 2020-02-24 | Jumbo Rocks Campground, XWRQ+Q2, Twentynine Palms, CA, United States
a rock-climbing adventure for men affected by divorce

As men, we internalize our families. Our wives and children are taken as extensions of ourselves. Caretakers, providers, guardians- these are the roles that give our short and brutal lives meaning.
And then one day, it’s all gone.
Some of us are lucky. Our splits are amicable- just mature people doing the right thing in acknowledging that marriage is no longer the best way of defining the relationship. We move on with our former spouse, in a solidarity that honors the value of what was, but will no longer be.
That’s not my story. And I’m hardly alone.
Horrific stories of unconscionable allegations, extortionate lawyers, heartbreak, and betrayal coupled with financial, emotional, and spiritual devastation are too often the case. We are challenged to grieve not only the loss of connection with our partner, but we are further leveled by separation from our children, the loss of financial discretion, and the devastating realization that everything we imagined to have value, including our dreams, has been replaced by a vortex of despair.
Brothers: this too shall pass. And in the process we will learn how wrong we were in our assumptions about marriage and family.
Join us for three days in Joshua Tree National Park where we will be joined by a mindfulness coach and rock climbing facilitators who will help to move us back into our hearts and bodies.
Any and all men affected by divorce are invited. Whether you are considering divorce, in the process of divorce, or even remarried after a divorce, you are welcome.
This trip requires that you provide your own food, clothing, and sleep kit. As part of the Dust and Tribe experience, you will be coached and mentored through these logistics. Rental options through non-contracted vendors are available.
We’re keeping this intimate with room for only 8 participants. All creeds are welcome.

D&T Grind: Wintersun
2020-01-16 - 2020-01-18 | Death Valley National Park, Stovepipe Wells, CA, 92328, United States
a coed desert backcountry adventure

Adult men and women are invited to join us for a 30-mile backcountry loop through one of the most forbidding and awe-inspiring landscapes on earth.
Death Valley is the largest national park in the lower 48. It hosts over a million people from around the world every year. Estimates are that only 300 of those people will hike this loop.
Death Valley is a backpacking frontier. It is a shuddering vastness that only the reckless would tempt. But that stark and unforgiving reputation belies an almost indescribable beauty.
If you know where the water is.
Our shuttles will take you to the trailhead at Cottonwood Canyon. From there we venture into the bush, tracing a course that follows seasonal springs across open washes, exposed ridges, and narrow passages through the living rock. We will spend our nights under the waning crescent moon and fall asleep beneath an endless canopy of stars.
After two nights in the backcountry, we will complete our loop, emerging on our third day from Marble Canyon and out to our waiting shuttles, God willing.
This trip requires that you provide your own food, water, backpack, clothing, and sleep kit. As part of the Dust and Tribe experience, you will be coached and mentored through these logistics. Rental options through non-contracted vendors are available.
This event is fully booked.

D&T VI: Keeping It Reel
2019-10-10 - 2019-10-13 | June Lake, June Lake, CA, 93529, United States
a fly fishing adventure for men

Join us for up to three nights of camping along June Lake as we learn to fly fish for High Sierra trout.
We’ve partnered with local guides to provide us with a day of instruction and a handful of tips about where to go and what time to get there to beat the weekenders and nab us some fish. Cutthroats, rainbows, and big mountain browns lurk in the pristine subalpine waters just waiting for that perfect presentation. We’ll learn what it takes to land these frisky freshwater fighters!
Thursday, October 10th is our gathering day. Make it to camp by nightfall and we’ll share a meal.
We have our day of fly fishing instruction booked with multiple guides on Friday, October the 11th. On Saturday the 12th, we split into tactical groups to practice what we’ve learned.
Your individual schedules permitting, we break camp anytime between Saturday evening and Sunday morning.
This trip is open to adult men only (18 and over, unless a previous participant of D&T Rites). All creeds are welcome.

2019-08-01 19:00 - 22:00 | Del Cerro Park, 2 Park Pl., Rancho Palos Verdes, CA, 90275, United States
Join me and the wonderful crew from Ramadan Ready as we search the sky for the new moon of Dhu’l-Hijjah, the 12th and final month of the Islamic lunar year!

There is a fantastic celestial dance between the earth and moon so tightly choreographed that entire calendars can be built in anticipation of their movements. We’ll gather together to search for the new moon from a gorgeous coastal overlook in Ranchos Palos Verdes. Bring food to allow for a sunset picnic and, conditions permitting, we’ll spend some time reviewing the more recognizable summer constellations, insha Allah.
A moon-themed craft, cookies, and cocoa will be provided by Ramadan Ready. All proceeds from this event will go toward supporting their work in promoting Islamic cultural representation in our public libraries.

D&T Kin: Trial by Water
2019-07-14 15:00 - 2019-07-16 15:00 | Oars American River Outpost, 7330 River Park Drive, Lotus, CA, 95961, United States
our inaugural family adventure
We’re going rafting!

Dust and Tribe, in collaboration with OARS, brings you two days and 21 miles of whitewater fun along the South Fork of the American River! Steeped in Gold Rush history, the American River is lined with oak and pine forests that tumble through the Sierra Nevada foothills, creating rolling valleys and gorges which mirror the flows and rolling rapids of this classic California river.
This will be our first ever family adventure, open to ages 8 and up.
On Sunday, July 14th, we’ll gather for a night under the stars at the OARS American River Outpost, about an hour outside of Sacramento, where we’ll enjoy:

Beach access for swimming in the river
Both individual and group campsites
Full men’s and women’s bathrooms with hot showers and flush toilets
Riverside camping (on a limited basis)
Games, including horseshoes, volleyball, and a life-size chess board
Easy walking distance to local cafes
Nature trails
Free WiFi

On the morning of Monday, July 15th we’ll put into the river for five hours of whitewater fun, breaking for lunch and setting up camp for a second night along the river’s edge.
On the morning of Tuesday, July 16th we’ll take a shuttle to our next put-in for another three hours of roiling, wet madness before ending the day back at the OARS Outpost.
We’ve negotiated a fantastic rate and dates that will allow for a private launch just for our group with scheduled prayer breaks. We’ll be responsible for bringing our own halal food and camping gear (rental options are available).
This adventure is closed to registration. You may add your name to the waiting list by sending us an email or a note via our contact page.

2019-06-29 11:00 - 14:00 | Crystal Cove State Park, 8471 N. Coast Highway, Laguna Beach, CA, 92651, United States
Join me and Ustadha Shereen Sabet of Splashgear as we explore the tide pools of Crystal Cove State Park!
Sun, wind, and the relentless churning of caustic salt water challenge the many inhabitants of these wonderful pools. We’ll gather together to learn about life in the intertidal zone and all of the special adaptations that living things must make to live under such extreme pressures.
In the interest of keeping things safe and fun, we are limiting the total number of participants to 20 16 13. Due to extremely slippery surfaces, many sharp rocks, and the unpredictable nature of waves, it is suggested that children in attendance be no less than seven years of age.
Bring some food and we’ll picnic afterward!
This event is being organized as a fundraiser for The Majlis.
