*"Why do we need to learn proper manners before acquiring knowledge?"*

So, here’s the explanation:

Learning proper manners (adab) before acquiring knowledge ensures that we develop good character, maintain pure intentions, respect our teachers, and use knowledge responsibly. Learning adab first helps a person not only to become knowledgeable but also to be wise and beneficial to society.

The knowledge you gained from that usrah session is very important in understanding the fundamentals of religion. Islam, Iman, and Ihsan are the three basic principles that form the core of religious life.

Islam: Refers to outward practices such as the five pillars of Islam – shahada (faith), salah (prayer), sawm (fasting), zakah (charity), and hajj (pilgrimage). These are the practical aspects that every Muslim must practice.

Iman: Refers to the aspect of belief or creed, including the six pillars of faith – belief in Allah, angels, books, prophets, the Day of Judgment, and divine decree (qada' and qadar).

Ihsan: Refers to the inner dimension, meaning how we worship Allah with sincerity. Ihsan means to worship Allah as though we see Him, and even if we do not see Him, to be fully aware that He sees us.

Mastering and learning each of these aspects thoroughly is key to gaining a deeper understanding of religion, so that you can practice it with sincerity and seek the pleasure of Allah.

The first session begins with a ta‘āruf (getting to know each other) session and ice-breaking activities to foster a strong bond among participants. A welcoming and comfortable environment is crucial for meaningful discussions.

This week also emphasizes the importance of seeking ḥikmah (wisdom) in every act of worship rather than performing rituals without understanding their significance. Participants will:

• Understand the importance of setting the right niyyah (intention) before any action.

• Learn how ʿamal (practices) shape their character and daily life.

• Internalize iḥsān, the concept of excellence in worship and conduct—practicing faith as if seeing Allah, or at least being aware that Allah sees them.

Each act of worship in Islam carries deep wisdom and purpose. This week, participants will explore the wisdom behind four major forms of ʿibādah, supported by verses from the Qur’an:

1. Ṣalāh (Prayer) – Surah Al-ʿAnkabūt (29:45) states that prayer prevents indecency and wrongdoing. When performed with sincerity and focus, it shapes a person’s discipline and moral character.

2. Ṣawm (Fasting) – Surah Al-Baqarah (2:183) highlights that fasting instills taqwā (God-consciousness). It helps individuals develop self-restraint, patience, and empathy for those less fortunate.

3. Zakāh (Charity) – Surah Al-Tawbah (9:103) describes zakāh as a means of purifying both wealth and the soul. It not only helps the needy but also cultivates generosity and prevents greed.

4. Ḥajj (Pilgrimage) – Surah Al-Baqarah (2:197) emphasizes discipline and good conduct during ḥajj. It teaches patience, humility, and the spirit of sacrifice while reinforcing unity among Muslims.

(Concentration)

This week focuses on ensuring that prayer is performed correctly and with full devotion. Key aspects include:

1. Ṭahārah (Purification) – Understanding the necessity of wuḍūʾ (ablution) and tayammum (dry purification) when water is unavailable.

2. Conditions for the Validity of Ṣalāh – Ensuring all requirements are met, such as proper attire, facing the qiblah, and performing prayer within its designated time.

3. Pillars and Sunnah of Ṣalāh – Learning the fundamental components that must be performed for the prayer to be valid, as well as additional practices that enhance the quality of prayer.

4. Performing Prayer in Different Situations – Understanding special rulings such as qaṣr and jamaʿ (shortened and combined prayers for travelers), nawāfil (voluntary prayers), and prayers for the sick or disabled.

salah is not just a ritual but a spiritual experience that instills important virtues, including:

• Al-Ṭāʿah (Obedience) – Prayer cultivates discipline and unwavering submission to Allah’s commands.

• Al-Jihād (Struggle for the Sake of Allah) – It strengthens one’s ability to resist desires and maintain self-discipline.

• Muḥāsabah (Self-Reflection) – Prayer encourages introspection, allowing believers to assess their actions and seek self-improvement.

• ʿIffah (Modesty and Self-Restraint) – It teaches purity, moral integrity, and self-control.

• Tawaḍḍuʿ (Humility) – By bowing and prostrating before Allah, prayer nurtures a sense of humility and eliminates arrogance.

Fasting is not merely about abstaining from food and drink but also serves as a spiritual exercise to develop:

1. Ṣabr (Patience and Forbearance) – By refraining from food, drink, and desires, individuals strengthen their ability to control impulses and endure hardships.

2. Takrīm (Respect and Honor) – Fasting teaches respect for others by encouraging self-restraint in speech and actions.

3. Raḥmah (Compassion and Mercy) – Experiencing hunger and thirst fosters empathy for the poor and encourages acts of kindness.

charity is not just about financial assistance but also about personal growth and strengthening social bonds:

1.Tawakkul (Reliance on Allah) – Giving charity teaches trust in Allah’s provision, reinforcing that wealth is a blessing meant to be shared.

2. Ukhuwwah (Brotherhood and Unity) – Zakat and charity strengthen the bonds between Muslims by reducing social inequality and fostering a sense of mutual care.
