WEEK 1 : NIYYAH, AMAL & IHSAN

 Bismillahirrahmanirrahim, we are know in semester 3 which is the last remaining semester for our foundation studies. But not to forget, we do still have usrah session with our assigned members and alhamdulillah we got lucky to have the same members as well as to new buddies ><

For the first session we were given a task to introduce ourselves and let our appointed naqibah to explain in more details about the course outline. Then, we proceeded to have a module 1 lecture/sharing. Our naqibah, Sr. Izzah Firzanah has done a great job by explaining to us a topic about some ways that we could practice to achieve wisdom in worshipping to our Lord, Allah SWT. 


1) SET YOUR INTENTION (NIYYAH)


We have to set our intentions in the first place before we just let our days, weeks, months or even years to happen. When we set our intentions correctly, we are actually activating our receptivity and manifesting and putting out that which we intend to attract and call into our life. And eventually that is the power behind it. In other words, Allah urges us to set our niyyah first to seek the blessings and receive love from Him.  


2) WORSHIP ALLAH SWT IN THE RIGHT WAY (AMAL)


As Muslims, we are taught from when we were still kids that we must perform worship to God in the right and manner ways. That is the reason why in such at young ages, we were exposed to the core teachings of Islam as it could be a guidance to us to worship to Allah SWT based on the conditions that have set for us to obey.  



3) WORSHIP TO ALLAH IN IHSAN 


For the last way, we must achieve our mandatory goals in life which performing Ibadah in Ihsan. As we all know, we are advised to treat other creatures with Ihsan, be it human or animal, however we are urged to do so and practice it in Ibadah too. In that way, we could seek the love from Allah SWT and have a perfect life in this world. 


So, that's all from what I've got today. Thank you!

WEEK 5 : THE VIRTUES FOUND IN SAWM (FASTING)

Image
 Assalamualaikum wbt. We discussed about a topic that is related to fasting (sawm). We got to have the chance to identify what are some types of wisdom in fasting.  1) While fasting, we could practice and train ourselves to be more patient to what is coming towards us. It is a natural way when a Muslim becomes more patient when practicing fasting in their life. 2) Besides, we could develop an attitude of respect to people around us. In this case, we could become a kind-hearted Muslim whom Allah loves whoever that do good to others.  3) Last but not least, we shall be getting mercy when practicing fasting in our life. Then, we continued our session with my group's presentation. (Group 4) While working on this poster with my friends, I could feel better and free in expressing what I thought about this. They taught me well and helped me when I literally had no idea to give them contents as the source of this poster. Despite of busy and hectic weeks, we managed to find our ti...

WEEK 4 : PILLARS OF IMAN

1)   Belief in Rasul and Anbiya' (The Messengers and The Prophets) - The fourth pillar is to   believe in all prophets and messengers sent by Allah   and that the prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, is the last of them.  Most of the messengers of Allah were sent to a specific nation except Prophet Muhammad, who was sent to guide all of mankind. It is a duty of Muslims to send salaams (Peace and Blessings of Allah) when mentioning the names of any of the Prophets. 2)  Belief in Qiyamah (The Resurrection Day) - Allah has set a certain period for the whole universe , whose end will be the final hour. During the final hour, humans will be questioned about their deeds in this world. Those deeds will be weighed for them. One whose good deeds overweigh his evil deeds will prosper, while whose bad deeds outweigh his good ones will be condemned to hellfire – unless he died in the state of Islam. Then, Allah would either forgive him or punish him, and eventual...

WEEK 7 : THE VIRTUES FOUND IN HAJJ / UMRAH

Image
 Assalamualaikum and hi! So as everyone knows, today would be our very last session for usrah in our foundation year. It is kinda sad but yet Allah's plans are definitely better than ours :)  This is gonna be the last sharing from our honourable Naqibah, Sister Izzah Firzanah. Hence, let's get started!  Basically, the word 'Hajj' means heading an honourable person or place. However, 'Hajj' legally means worshipping Allah by performing the Hajj rituals which are defined  as specific acts performed at a specific time and place in a specific way.  Hajj is the Fifth Pillar of Islam. It is believer that it is one of the best actions of worship.  Hajj could make us Muslims, purified from sins and could also give us no reward but Jannah.  While Umrah, it linguistically means to visit and juridically, umrah means a way of worshipping Allah by making Tawaf of the Kaabah and Saie between Mount Safa and Marwa and shaving or cutting hair.  The act of Umrah is...
