Alhamdulillah, the Survival Camp was a great success with 50+ Khuddam in attendance.

The programme began with all Khuddam gathering at Baitul Ehsan, where we offered Asr prayer together before organising transport and departing for Hadeeqatul Mahdi.

Upon arrival, Khuddam began setting up the camp and preparing the BBQ arrangements, while others gathered around the fire area where wood was burned organically, creating a very enjoyable outdoor atmosphere. After Namaz, BBQ dinner was served and Khuddam enjoyed engaging discussions, activities and memorable conversations around the fire gathering late into the night. Respected National Sadr Sahib Farhad Ahmad Sahib and members of National Amla also attended and spent valuable time with the Khuddam. Tea was also served throughout the evening.

Some Khuddam rested early while others stayed awake late into the night enjoying various games and activities together. At around 3:30am, Khuddam departed for Fajr prayer behind Huzoor (May Allah be his Helper), which was a truly special experience for everyone.

After some rest, breakfast arrangements included a full English breakfast alongside delicious Lahori chana and naan. Various sports and activities then took place including cricket and archery.

Waqar-e-Amal was held after breakfast and was split between two teams serving in both Hadeeqatul Mahdi and Kingsley. The turnout and participation in Waqar-e-Amal was excellent.

Following Zuhr and Asr prayers, lunch and dessert were served along with tea. The programme then concluded with a highly enjoyable target shooting session. Before the activity began, Khuddam received a detailed and informative safety and training session, which helped everyone understand the proper handling and use of the equipment. The target shooting was one of the most enjoyed activities of the entire camp.

Alhamdulillah, the camp created a strong atmosphere of brotherhood, teamwork, spirituality and enjoyment throughout, and we pray Allah enables us to continue organising such beneficial activities in the future, Ameen.
