The Békhudi Retreat Experience

Nestled on the scenic outskirts of Islamabad, the Békhudi Retreats offer a unique blend of spiritual, meditative, and restorative experiences in a luxurious farmhouse, infused with deep Sufi influences. Guided by Tehmina and a team of experts, these retreats are designed to help you disconnect from the stresses of life and reconnect with inner peace.

Prayer Pavilion

At the heart of the farmhouse is a stunning domed prayer pavilion, perched over a koi fish pond and connected by timber bridges. This sacred space, often used for Sufi Zikr by the resident family, offers a tranquil setting for spiritual reflection.

Private Courtyard and Dewan Pavilion

A secluded courtyard hosts a beautiful dewan pavilion, inspired by traditional Islamic architecture. Adjacent to the swimming pool, this space invites guests to unwind and connect with others in a peaceful environment.

Versatile Indoor Spaces

The farmhouse features a large, adaptable basement area, ideal for group yoga sessions, workshops, or seminar-style discussions. This flexible space accommodates all retreat activities comfortably.

Meditation first of all silences the mind and allows us to build focus. Tehmina conducted the sessions beautifully and increased everyone’s positive energy and flow. I feel I am able to go into a meditative state smoothly now and access my blocked emotions. Night meditations have helped me sleep better, dark circles have improved and my skin glows in the morning. I have benefitted from the daily practice and hope to be regular at home. Regular meditation is very powerful. Thank you for guiding us!

This course helped me to bring myself back in the here and now and let go of things that are not important at exactly this present moment. I had beautiful magical moments in my meditation during the course that can’t be explained in words and I am truly grateful to Tehmina for this experience.

Firstly, I wish I had discovered you sooner. This course has helped me tremendously and made me realize I still have a long way to go. Secondly, it has helped me sleep better, calm down in difficult situations and taught me a lot about myself. Looking forward to more sessions with you!

This is neat - alumni from AKU-ISMC have set up an Urdu-English meditation platform to help people cope with the crisis of uncertainty and lockdown. We make a big deal about training future leaders in AKU-ISMC and sometimes that means people who have obvious positions of authority, like politicians, diplomats, scholars or entrepreneurs, but sometimes it means taking a lead in more personal capacities to try and make things better for others.

I'm truly impressed and humbled by Tehmina Mansoor and Zohaib Zuby. They are definitely demonstrating the kind of leadership that makes me proud to be part of AKU.
