A learning community supporting the spiritual needs of human beings while preserving the natural environment for present and future generations.



Creating a New Model of Community & Sustainability

Hijrah Society purchased 10 acres of rural land to continue the journey that New Medina Village began. 

Our intention is to ally our hearts with our hands, to have coherence in what we say and do, for to live one way and pray another is not without consequence. 

We're honored by the faith placed in us by our community and pray that our land stewardship will provide a refuge for encouraging our community with new possibilities. 

Those interested in our project should understand that our efforts are a work in progress. It might help to think of us as artists who may take many years to complete a masterpiece, so be patient and thank you for your interest.

Ramadan Mubarak

As'salaamu Alaykum wa Ramadan Mubarak


It's been some time since our last update. We've been on the land for nearly two years. In that time we've built a cabin, converted three sheds into two cabins and a workshop.

We care for chickens, ducks, rabbits, goats, and bees. We have a small garden and several fruiting trees and shrubs for a future orchard inshallah.

Most importantly, this journey would not have been possible without your support. Thank you and we pray to have you visit us in the near future inshallah.

The hijrah continues...

Assalaamu alaykum. It’s been a challenging journey yet we are grateful to report that we are now full time stewards on the land. We’ve begun organizing a basecamp and started a rain harvesting project. Inshallah we’ll send more updates as we progress along.

We've begun building

Asalamu Alaykum, 

This is just a quick update to let you know we've started building! Our first building project is called the Hijrah Hut (beta). It's a tiny dwelling that's modular and can be assembled and disassembled with just two people. The purpose of the Hijrah Hut is to provide transitional shelter once we've moved to the land.   

Thank you for your support and more updates to come, insha'Allah!

The Hijrah Continues...

As'salaamu Alaykum wa Ramadan Mubarak,

Two years ago in this very month, you helped us raise $16,087 to make a down payment on land that would become New Medina Village. We used every penny of your support to make that down payment and New Medina Village an idea five years in the making came to life.


Only a few months after our LaunchGood campaign New Medina Village found itself making a difficult choice, to continue or to close. The choice to close was made and many felt disappointed by this decision. Hindsight being 20/20, it was the right decision to make. 

Today, we are very pleased to inform you that your support was not in vain. We now have land and the commitments we made to you are being fulfilled. We are currently working on our transition to the land beginning in 2018 insha'Allah.

Thank you again for your support, we hope to give you additional updates sometime in the spring of 2018.

Peace and blessings to you and those you love.
