Our first Usrah meet was in an online session because many of us were starting to go back home for Raya.

Activities:

Taaruf

Briefing on course outline

Games ( Definition of Usrah and Adab)

# data[].attributes.body
For the introduction, we need to open our camera while introducing ourselves

Everyone needs to introduce themselves:

Name

Nickname

Programme of study

Origin

Year and semester of study

Previous education

One thing that you like about IIUM

From this taaruf session, I found out that there were students from the same university as me from my previous education.

# data[].attributes.body
Sister Aisyah gives a briefing about the course outline and assessment rubric.

what I get from this course and task briefing is:

if we don't attend one day in this usrah session, we can get a barred letter

For the assignment briefing, there will be two assignments that students must complete to pass this usrah.

First, the e-portfolio task, which is an individual task that needs to be done every week

Second, the role-play task is a group assignment that needs 4/5 members in one group. For this task, the group can choose whether to do a poster or a video, and the title cannot be same with other groups.

# data[].attributes.body
Before Sister Aisyah shared about Introduction to Usrah, she asked several questions, such as:

What is Usrah?

= From this question, most of the students answered the same answer, which is that Usrah is a family

What is the function of usrah?

= Usrah has a lot of functions, such as supporting others that in need, sharing knowledge, knowing others, and more

Have you heard about usrah before entering IIUM?

= Half of the students said yes (70%) and no (30%). For me, I have been participating in usrah since secondary school, diploma, and degree, since I came from an Islamic School.

# data[].attributes.body
We played a game using Canva. All of us need to give one point for 'what you can do' and 'what you can't do', hence, using an image as self-explanatory.

These are some of the points they gave:

'What you can do':

listen while Sister Aisyah is giving a lecture

take important notes

Help others when they are in need

'What you can't do':

Do not talk with your friends while Sister is giving a lecture

Do not do other things when in a Usrah session, such as doing other assignments that are not related to Usrah

Do not eat heavy meals while in the Usrah session

p/s: I learned that adab will always come first in everything we do because adab shows our attitude and personality. Hence, as an Islamic student, our adab needs to be aligned with our knowledge. Even Imam Syafi'e learned adab for 10 years, which shows that adab is a significant moral values that need to be improved everyday.

Location: Musolla Hafsa

Time: 8 pm - 10 pm

Our first face-to-face usrah session. For this week's session, we need to bring along an A4 paper that already has our nickname written on it with and Sister Aisyah recommends that we design according to our creativity.

Activities:

Interpreting Surah Al Rahman

Game (Taaruf)

Presentation ( The Miracles of the Quran)

# data[].attributes.body
Before we started to interpret Surah Al Rahman, every member needed to read one verse for one person, and for those members who are excluded, they can read the translation of the verse. this shows that every Usrah member needs to participate.

Interpreting Surah Al Rahman:

This Surah reminds us of the blessings that Allah has given us. So, it is good to read this Surah when we have just received blessings from Allah. If we are afflicted with hardship, then this Surah also reminds us that even though we are in hardship, many blessings have been received and are still being received.

It is a Makkiah Surah (revealed in Mecca). Some also say it is a Madaniyah Surah (revealed in Medina). But if we look at the subject presented in this Surah, it is more suitable as a Makkah Surah. It was revealed at the end of the Prophet's time in Mecca before the migration to Medina.

# data[].attributes.body
In the first week of Usrah, we already introduced ourselves via online Google Meet, but this time, we need to introduce ourselves by doing a trademark, and the trademark needs to be followed by other members so that we can memorize our Usrah members' nicknames.

p/s: It was a fun game because it challenged our memory to remember the different names and trademarks of every member

# data[].attributes.body
Sister Aisyah lets us choose our title that we are interested in and gives us 15 minutes to understand and make some small notes for ourselves to present to the others.

Sister Aisyah suggests that anyone who would like to volunteer to present on their choices of topics. Sister Aisyah picked two names randomly, and I volunteered to present my topic because it feels nice to share the information that we feel is important for others to know

Title: Boy or Girl:

Presenter: Sister Arina

Women overcome the man's; the mobility of the sperm-carrying female chromosomes is doubled.

If the characteristic masculinity is overcome, the result is male and vice versa

# data[].attributes.body
Titles: Istihadhah

Presenter: Sister Huda

The prophet clarified that this bleeding is not menstruation but from a blood vessel (istihadhah)

Therefore, a Muslim woman should only stop praying during actual menstruation and resume prayers after washing once the menstrual period ends

# data[].attributes.body
Titles: The Skin

Presenter: Me

The function of skin is to feel all kinds of touch, heat, and pain

Advancement of anatomy revealed the truth that not all parts of the body feel pain (only the skin is the source of the pain)

Allah keeps on reminding the non-believers to keep on the right path. Those who reject guidance from Allah (disbelievers) will be punished in the hereafter. For example, Allah will burn them repeatedly until they are completely burnt. But they think that they will only feel the pain once, but Allah has mentioned in the Quran that their skin will be replaced with a new skin so that they can feel the same pain over and over again.

Ayah 10-19: Type of Syirik

In terms of shari’ah or Islamic terminology, shirk means ascribing a partner or rival to Allah in Lordship (rububiyyah), worship, or in His names and attributes.

There are two types of Syirik, which are:

1. Syirik Jali (Clear)

Example: Worshiping idols, Worshiping the sun, moon, or stars, Asking for help from the dead or other than Allah SWT, Uniting God (shirk tab'id), and Determining the existence of two or more gods (shirik istiqlal).

2. Syirik Khafi (Hidden)

Riak (doing good deeds for people)

Taqlid (following others without knowledge)

Asking for help other than Allah SWT (shirk taqrib)

Attributing effects to causes (shirk asbab)

Doing good deeds for someone other than Allah SWT (shirk aghrad)

# data[].attributes.body
This hadith includes within it all outward actions and inwardly beliefs. The sciences of the Sharia return to this hadith due to it encompassing knowledge of the Sunnah. Hence, some of the scholars have termed this hadith the Mother or Core of the Sunnah, just as Surah al-Fatiha has been termed the Mother or Core of the Qur'an, due to it containing the entire Message of the Qur'an.

This hadith is also known as Hadith Jibreel (Angel Gabriel). The hadith tells the story of Jibreel (as) when he came to the Prophet (sas), asking a set of questions. The Prophet (sas) responded to those questions and then addressed his companions. There is a door called “Baab Jibreel” at Masjid An-Nabawi in Madina. It is known as the door that Jibreel (as) came in to ask the Prophet (sas) these questions.

Scholars consider Islam, Iman, and Ihsan the three stages in the path towards Allah (swt):

1. The first path is you force yourself and bring yourself to do those actions that you know Allah wants you to do.

2. The second level is iman, where you are not only doing those actions, but you are strengthening your relationship with Allah (swt) and you’re beginning to taste the sweetness of your relationship with Allah.

3. The third level is the level of Ihsan, which is to worship Allah as if you see Him, and even if you cannot see Him, to know that He sees you. So, you are moving in this path, this journey, towards the Divine. And in doing so, it’s getting more and more intense.

This week's class was postponed, but during the class time:

we need to discuss with our group members about the group task.

create and update e-portfolio, also paste the link in the Google Docs

we need to write a letter and put in Sampul Raya for the letter of love activity next week.

# data[].attributes.body
Activities:

Tadabbur Surah Yunus

Hadis 13: Iman dengan cinta

Presentation another two group

Letter of Love

# data[].attributes.body
Tadabbur Surah Yunus ayat 99:

This refers to the freedom that Allah has granted to mankind to believe or not to believe in Him. Otherwise, He could have very easily created all the people as born believers and obedient servants, and there would have been no disbelief and disobedience at all on the earth. Or He could have very easily inspired them to turn towards belief and obedience. But these methods would have defeated the wisdom that underlies the creation of mankind.

This does not at all mean that the Prophet (peace be upon him) desired to force people to become believers, and that Allah was forbidding him to do this. The Quran has here adopted the same method of admonishing the people that it has adopted at many other places, that is, though the words have been addressed to the person of the Prophet (peace be upon him), these have been addressed to the people.

# data[].attributes.body
This hadith is strongly correlated with the Golden Rule, which is “do as to others what you want to yourself,” and that is to love your brother as you love yourself.

love for fellow believers:

1. Prayers for guidance to those who are friends of the disbelievers

2. love to obtain goodness and benefits

The consequences of not loving fellow believers

1. If he doesn't love his brother, it means he has a desire for envy.

2. aspires to take the favors that his brother has received

3. don't like anyone more than him.

# data[].attributes.body
I volunteer myself to read the Hadith

# data[].attributes.body
My group present about Hari Kiamat.

How to practice ourselves to prepare for the hereafter:

- This warns against arrogance, pride, and a pursuit of materialism over spirituality and humility

- We as Muslims need to always remind ourselves that this world is not forever. The hereafter and heaven are our goals. This world is a place where we do good deeds to get a reward from Allah SWT.

The issue related to Hari Kiamat is about every country racing to build a high building.

# data[].attributes.body
Everyone needs to provide one love letter, and the love letters were collected by Sister Aisyah. Sister Aisyah will ask us to pick a random Sampul Raya.

hadith about anger:

The prophet repeated many times not to be angry

You should be angry

So when you are angry and when you are not angry

Stay away from anger because it is a fire cancer that is in every nation of Prophet Adam

anger is fire that comes from the devil

and fire can only be extinguished by water

Prophet Isa said to Prophet Yahya Tell me how not to be angry

example: if someone says something bad to us, remember that the bad thing is a sin that we commit without realizing it

and if it is true, we repent to Allah

if there is no fault, it means that the person is adding more bad slander about us, so we are patient and we get sin

Imam Ghazali said the characteristics of human anger are various:

- quick to get angry

- quick to calm down

- quick to get angry, quickly calm down

- quick to get angry, slowly calm down

- slow to get angry, slowly calm down

- slow to get angry, very calm down

if there is something related to religion, then it is appropriate for us to get angry

In conclusion, getting angry has to be for a reason

I would like to thank you, Sister Aisyah, for all the effort she made throughout this Urah session. I really appreciate your effort to play a game with us. I wish you all the best in your life, may Allah ease everything that you do, amin. And also, I would like to apologise if there is a behaviour that makes you uncomfortable during the Usrah session. Thank you again, and I hope to get to meet all of my Usrah friends inside and outside IIUM.

Explanation about Role Play (Pillars of Solat)

Collaboration of Usrah 1 and Usrah 2

Wish and Feedback

# data[].attributes.body
For our group in Role Play, we chose the topic Pillar of Solat. We decided to make a story about two girls who accidentally leave out the pillars of prayer, and show the correct way to pray. In summary, what I understand from our role play is that, to ensure that the prayer is faultless and genuine, we must adhere to the pillars of prayer, which are standing, intention, takbiratul ihram, and reciting the surah Al-Fatiha. Without these pillars, the prayer is not valid. The prayer will be deemed incomplete and rejected by Allah if the pillars are disregarded.

Why is adhering to the pillars of prayer crucial? Firstly, to create a feeling of submission to Allah. Secondly, achieve prayer validity and perfection every pillar serves as a crucial foundation for finishing the act of prayer. Also, develops mental and spiritual strength. A Muslim can develop a high degree of inner strength by continuously adhering to the proper pillars of prayer, which can also help them develop discipline, mental fortitude, and spiritual stability.

Throughout this usrah class, from the first day to the last, I thoroughly enjoyed taking classes under Sister Iman. sister Iman is very kind and always understands us. I really enjoyed classes with my sister Iman. Even though at first I was in the wrong class, where I should have been in class 204, sister Iman solved my problem so quickly. Thank you sister Iman, for helping me. This is a lesson for me to see the division class correctly, so I will not make another mistake. I have a lot to wish for ,but what I can wish for is, sister Iman be strong. No matter what life gives you, accept it with a smile. I hope you are strong physically and mentally. When you first said that you are the eldest daughter, I think I can feel your burden. I can feel how heavy it is to carry the burden yourself. The responsibility of the eldest child is very heavy, you need to find someone you can release all your burdens to. Don't keep one person, over time it will become very painful. I pray that you are strong enough to face all the challenges, and all your hard work will pay off. Always remember that. I'm sorry if I made a mistake during class, and I'm sorry on behalf of my friends if they made you feel bad. Finally, I wish you the best, sister Iman.

# data[].attributes.body
For feedback, there's only good feedback that I can give to sister Iman. I like the way she explains to us, it's short and clear. I love her efforts to come to teach us while her house was far from IIUM. There's no negative feedback that I can give. From the first until the last class, it's all good.

# data[].attributes.body
The similar knowledge that I learn in usrah 1 and 2 is about Ihsan. Personally, I think Ihsan means doing good in all aspects, whether by worshipping Allah SWT with full conviction as if seeing Him (or realizing that He always sees us), or in good deeds and kindness to fellow humans and the environment. Ihsan is the highest level of faith where a person worships and behaves with perfect, honest, and sincere character to gain Allah's pleasure. Furthermore, doing good things for your surroundings is one of the Ihsan. For example, helping old people cross the street and giving charity. There's similar advice that Sister Aisyah and Sister Iman said, which is always to help your friends who have struggled with their studies. If we want to excel, we have to excel together; we can't excel alone. In a briefing, helping our friends in studies is a part of Ihsan that students can do.
