We believe in messengers and prophets. Without them, we wouldn’t know about God, angels, or things we can’t see. Messengers teach us how to live our lives. They show us how to be good people.

The Prophet Muhammad was very grateful to God. He prayed so much that his feet swelled. He said, “Why shouldn’t I be grateful?” He also repented a lot. He was a very good person.

We should be kind to others and make things easier for them. The best people are those who are good and kind. We should be balanced in everything we do. We shouldn’t be too extreme.

We need to be passionate about our worship and facing difficulties. We shouldn’t be proud or arrogant. We should be responsible and do good things. We should always be kind and helpful.

# data[].attributes.body
We believe in God’s plan and will for our lives. Everything that happens, good or bad, is part of God’s plan. He has already decided what will happen to us, and we should accept His will.

God knows everything that will happen to us. He has written our destiny in a book called the Preserved Tablet. Nothing can happen without God’s permission. We should trust in God and believe that He knows what is best for us.

Believing in God’s plan can help us to feel more at peace and accept the challenges we face in life. It can also help us to focus on what we can control and trust God with the rest.

# data[].attributes.body
We believe in the afterlife, where this world will end and we will be judged. We believe that God will judge us based on our actions in this life. Good deeds will be rewarded, while bad deeds will be punished.

We believe in the Day of Judgment, when all people will be gathered together. Our actions will be recorded and presented to God. Those who have done good will go to heaven, while those who have done evil will go to hell.

Believing in the afterlife helps us to fear God and do good. It also helps us to be patient in this life, knowing that the challenges we face here are nothing compared to what may come in the afterlife.

Assalamualaikum this week we discussed about 3 pillars of faith.        1) Belief in Allah

Muslim need to believe in Tawhid, which asserts that there is one God, Allah, the exclusive creator, sustainer, and ruler of the universe.  This monotheism belief influences all facets of a Muslim's faith and practice, highlighting that no other entity shares Allah's divine nature, authority, or attributes.

2) Belief in Angels

Angels are composed of light, which allows them to remain unseen by humans in their typical state. However, they can occasionally manifest in physical form, such as when the angel Gabriel appeared as a human. Angels are incapable of sinning or disobeying God, and they perform their responsibilities with complete obedience.

3) Belief in Books

The divine books serves as divine guidance for humanity, with each revealed book intended to instruct individuals on living in accordance with God's desires. They encompass various elements, including technology, ethics, social conduct, and legal issues. This spiritual scripture is viewed as a divine revelation that provides instruction on proper worship, justice, and leading an authentic life.

Assalamualaikum and hello! For today's usrah session Br Farez shared with us about the concept "IHSAN".

Muhsin is the best version of a muslim man/woman could be in this world. For someone to be a Muhsin, they need to possess the quality of Ihsan first.

According to the Quran, there are 3 characteristics of al-Muhsin :

Doing good to others

Doing good to others at the highest possible level, to the best of one's ability.

Doing both of the above for the sake of Allah SWT.

Application of "IHSAN" in daily life

For instance, if you're a student, you will dedicate most of your time to study in the most efficient way possible and not waste time. The most important part is that you do it all for the sake of Allah SWT and not for praises from others or grades. Besides that, a man with ihsan will perform ibadah like he can see Allah SWT. But if he cannot, he believes that Allah SWT can see him.

Assalamualaikum, this week we discussed about manners(adab) especially with our beloved parents.

How to show good manners to our parents?
1. Always show love to parents
2. Taking care of their welfare when they are old
3. Ensuring their faith in religion is intact
4. Never feel superior to your parents
even if we are more successful than them
5. Always pray for their welfare and safety
so that we can meet them in heaven

Story of Prophet Ibrahim as
- Prophet Ibrahim adviced his father to worship Allah
- Even if his father rejected his advice many times, Prophet Ibrahim still talk with manners and called his father softly
- At one point, his father kicked Prophet Ibrahim out from the house.
- But still, Prophet Ibrahim didn't lose his manners.
- After a long time, Prophet Ibrahim was blessed with two child which is Yaakub and Ismail.
- They also become a prophet same as their father.
- It can be seen as a gift from Allah as Prophet Ibrahim was a good child and always show his good manners with his parents.

Conclusion
We as a child to our parents, we must obey to our parents and show our love to them because Allah's pleasure is placed in our parents' pleasure.

Hikmah, often translated as wisdom, is a highly valued quality in Islam. It's more than just knowledge; it's the ability to apply that knowledge with sound judgment, at the right time and in the right way. Acquiring Hikmah is a lifelong pursuit

Divine Grace: Ultimately, Hikmah is a gift from Allah. Muslims believe supplication (du'a) is essential in seeking it.

Knowledge Acquisition:

Studying the Quran and Sunnah (Prophet Muhammad's teachings and practices) is paramount. These are the primary sources of wisdom.

Seeking knowledge in diverse fields can contribute to Hikmah by broadening one's understanding of the world.

Reflection and Contemplation:

Hikmah isn't simply about accumulating facts; it's about internalizing and understanding them.

Pondering the signs of Allah in the universe and reflecting on personal experiences are crucial for gaining deeper insights.

Practical Application:

Hikmah is demonstrated through actions and decisions. Applying knowledge justly and thoughtfully, considering consequences, is a hallmark of wisdom.

Cultivating Virtues:

Patience and Perseverance: Developing Hikmah requires lifelong dedication and patience. Learning from mistakes and seeking guidance are essential.

Humility and Sincerity: Recognizing that all knowledge comes from Allah is key. Sincerity in seeking and applying knowledge is also vital.

Beneficial Associations: Seeking the company of wise and knowledgeable individuals allows one to learn from their experiences and benefit from their guidance.

The Quran, Islam's central religious text, is believed by Muslims to be the direct word of God. It serves as the ultimate guide for Muslims, covering religious beliefs and practices, ethics, morality, law, society, history, and stories of past prophets. Muslims believe the Quran is a complete guide for all of humanity, applicable to all times and places. It's also valued for its literary beauty and historical significance.

Surah Al-Mukminun (24;1-2)

Dengan nama Allah, Yang Maha Pemurah, lagi Maha Mengasihani.

Sesungguhnya berjayalah orang-orang yang beriman,

Iaitu mereka yang khusyuk dalam sembahyangnya;

To prepare for Salah with Khusyu' (humility and attentiveness):

Before: Purify your heart, perform mindful wudu, prepare your space, and quiet your mind.

During: Understand the recitations, focus on Allah, slow down, engage your heart, visualize, and gently redirect your mind if it wanders. Remember the Quran's emphasis on the importance of prayer and reflection (e.g., 20:14, 47:24, 23:1-2).

After: Reflect on your prayer and try to maintain mindfulness throughout the day.

Khusyu' involves humility, attentiveness, and presence of heart, connecting you deeply with Allah.

Gratitude: By experiencing a state of need, fasting increases gratitude for Allah's blessings and encourages thankfulness for the basic necessities of life.

Honesty and Integrity: Fasting requires honesty and sincerity in one's intentions and actions. It encourages individuals to be truthful and to uphold high moral standards.

Social Virtues:

Unity and Community: Ramadan fosters a sense of unity and community among Muslims as they fast and break their fasts together. It strengthens social bonds and promotes a sense of belonging.

Charity and Generosity: Ramadan is a time of increased charitable giving and generosity towards the poor and needy. It encourages Muslims to share their resources and support those in need.

Social Justice: Fasting can raise awareness of social injustices and inspire individuals to work towards a more just and equitable society.

Other Virtues:

Health Benefits: Fasting can have various health benefits, such as improved digestion, detoxification, and weight management.

Increased Productivity: Some people find that fasting can increase their focus and productivity, allowing them to accomplish more in their daily lives.

It is important to note that the virtues of sawm are not limited to these. Each individual may experience different benefits and blessings through fasting, depending on their intentions, sincerity, and personal circumstances.

In conclusion, both Zakat and Sadaqah are essential acts of charity in Islam with numerous spiritual, moral, and social benefits. They purify wealth, strengthen faith, promote compassion, and contribute to a more just and equitable society.

Assalamualaikum! for week 1, we discussed detailed about topic al quran as the book of guidance and related subtopic in i. As a muslim, this topic

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN QURAN AND OTHER PREVIOUS BOOK

When one divinely revealed Book was corrupted another was sent until eventually, Allah sent the Quran.The difference between Quran and the previous Books was that Allah chose to protect it Himself rather than entrusting it to His slaves. This is why the Quran remains unchanged to this day word for word and it has been preserved from corruption.

From quran we can learn about:
1.sign of creators
The signs of God’s existence and creation are in many things, especially on planet Earth and the whole universe all are signs of God.
Surat An-Naĥl  16 : 65

وَاللَّهُ أَنزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً فَأَحْيَا بِهِ الْأَرْضَ بَعْدَ مَوْتِهَا ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَةً لِّقَوْمٍ يَسْمَعُونَ

And God sent down water from the sky, and by it, He gives life to the earth after its death. Indeed, there is in this a sign [of God’s power and knowledge] for the people who hear

2.  Arguments of the Oneness of  God
We sent no Messenger before you without revealing to him, "There is no god but Me, so worship Me (alone)" (Al-Anbiya 21:25).

The Oneness of Allah, known as tawhid, is the first and paramount constituent of the Islamic concept, as it is the fundamental truth of the Islamic faith. It is also one of the chief characteristics of the Islamic concept because, among all the belief systems and philosophies currently prevailing among human beings, only the Islamic faith can be characterized as having a pure form of monotheism. This is why we have included “The Oneness of Allah" as one of the characteristics of the Islamic concept.

3. The story of prophet
The stories of the Prophets in the Quran offer timeless lessons that are applicable to our modern challenges. From the repentance of Adam to the perseverance of Nuh, the faith of Ibrahim, the leadership of Musa, and the mercy experienced by Yunus, these narratives guide us in our spiritual journey.

4.Seerah
The study of the life of the Prophet (peace be upon him) is known as seerah. This subject covers his day to day life, interactions with Companions and family, his role as a leader, as well as his characteristics and mannerisms.

Why Quran serve as important guide to mankind:
the first thing is to
UNDERSTANDING THE CREATOR;
by studying the quran it helps the person to understand their relationship with Allah, that are the creator and sustainer of the universe.

DEFINING THEIR RESPONSIBILITY;
in quranic ayah tells us about responsibility not only  one towards allah but also to his creation. The responsibility including upholding justice, showing mercy, being truthful, and striving to improve oneself and society

ACCOUNTABILITY:
every action they perform has its consequences and that they will be held responsible for their deeds in the Hereafter (Surah Al-Zalzalah 99:7-8).

So for the part of critical thinking in islam
HOW DOES QURAN TREAT THE CURRENT PROBLEM FACED BY YOUTHS   ?
1. Quran helps youths overcome stress in daily lives by    ensuring that every hardship is a test by Allah SWT and there is a silver lining in every test.

2. Quran helps youths to differentiate between halal and haram such as the prohibition of alcohol and zina in life.
