week1 💌 acquisition of hikmah ( positive values from Ibadah ) 💌

# data[].attributes.body
In this week , we learn about acquisition of Ibadah which are setting the right niyyah ( intention ) , applying the right amal (practices) , and internalising the ihsan (positive virtues) .

In Islam, ʿIbadah (worship) is not only about physical acts but also involves inner qualities and spiritual excellence. Its true essence is acquired through the integration of three core components:

Niyyah (Intention)
Niyyah means having the right intention to seek Allah’s pleasure. A sincere and clear niyyah is essential for any act of worship to be accepted.

Amal (Action/Deed)
Amal refers to performing righteous deeds such as prayer, fasting, zakat, and kindness. These acts must be done with sincerity and consistency, according to Islamic teachings.

Ihsan (Excellence in Worship)
Ihsan is to worship Allah as if you see Him; even if you cannot see Him, know that He sees you. It reflects a high level of sincerity, mindfulness, and moral excellence.

Together, Niyyah, Amal, and Ihsan ensure that worship is not just ritual, but a path to gaining ḥikmah (wisdom) and nearness to Allah.

week2 💌 reason and sources of hikmah from Ibadah 💌

# data[].attributes.body
In Islam, ʿIbadah (worship) is not only a means of fulfilling religious duties but also a source of acquiring ḥikmah (wisdom). Each act of worship contains deep lessons and benefits that guide individuals toward righteousness and understanding.

Ṣalāh (Prayer): Builds discipline and prevents immoral behavior. It reminds the soul of Allah and maintains spiritual connection. Surah al-ʿAnkabūt (29:45):

“Indeed, prayer prohibits immorality and wrongdoing, and the remembrance of Allah is greater. And Allah knows what you do.”

(إِنَّ ٱلصَّلَوٰةَ تَنْهَىٰ عَنِ ٱلْفَحْشَآءِ وَٱلْمُنكَرِ ۗ وَلَذِكْرُ ٱللَّهِ أَكْبَرُ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ يَعْلَمُ مَا تَصْنَعُونَ)

Ṣawm (Fasting): Cultivates self-restraint and taqwa (God-consciousness), helping one to avoid sins and improve character. Surah al-Baqarah (2:183):

“O you who have believed, fasting has been prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may become righteous.”

(يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوا۟ كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلصِّيَامُ كَمَا كُتِبَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ)

Zakāh (Charity): Purifies wealth and the soul, promotes social responsibility, and reduces greed. Surah at-Tawbah (9:103):

“Take from their wealth a charity by which you purify them and cause them increase, and invoke blessings upon them…”

(خُذْ مِنْ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ صَدَقَةً تُطَهِّرُهُمْ وَتُزَكِّيهِمْ بِهَا وَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ)

Ḥajj (Pilgrimage): Teaches humility, unity, and obedience. It is a journey of spiritual renewal and submission to Allah. Surah al-Baqarah (2:197):

“And take provisions, but indeed, the best provision is Taqwa (God-consciousness). So fear Me, O you of understanding.”

(وَتَزَوَّدُوا۟ فَإِنَّ خَيْرَ ٱلزَّادِ ٱلتَّقْوَىٰ ۚ وَٱتَّقُونِ يَـٰٓأُو۟لِى ٱلْأَلْبَـٰبِ)

These forms of ʿibādah help develop inner qualities like sincerity, humility, and devotion, which are key to acquiring true ḥikmah in life.

week 3 💌 preparation for Salah , with Khushu 💌

# data[].attributes.body
In this week , we will learn about preparation for Salah with Khushu where we have to find strategies of gaining Khushu in Salah .

the meaning of Khushu - Khushu refers to a state of humble submission, concentration, and sincerity in worship, especially during Salah (prayer). It is when the heart feels awe and reverence for Allah, and the body reflects that humility. In brief , Khushu is when you pray with full attention, a focused heart, and deep respect, knowing you are standing before Allah.

We also learn about the attainment of Khushu’ before, during and after the observance of Salah .

Before Salah , what we must prepare for ourselves are ;

Purify the heart with sincere niyyah (intention).

Perform wuḍūʾ (ablution) properly and calmly.

Choose a quiet, clean place for prayer.

Disconnect from worldly distractions — mentally and physically.

Recall whom you are about to stand before: Allah, the Most High.

During Salah , we have to presence ourselves like ;

Focus fully on each word and movement.

Lower your gaze and pray calmly and unhurried.

Reflect on the meanings of the verses and supplications.

Feel awe, humility, and love for Allah.

Remind yourself that Allah is watching you.

After Salah , we must do self reflection for ourselves !! such as ,

Sit for dhikr (remembrance) and dua (supplication).

Reflect on the prayer: Was I focused? How can I improve?

Carry the spirit of Khushu into your daily actions.

Make Istighfar (seeking forgiveness) for any shortcomings in prayer.

Conclusion:

True Khushu is a journey that begins before Salah , is nurtured during it, and is reinforced after it creating a stronger and more conscious connection with Allah.

# data[].attributes.body
In this week , we learn about the virtues found in Salah with Khushu , where the usrah members have to find out what is the challenge faced by the Prophets and share with the usrah members how we could take the lessons from their experience .

Salah (prayer) is one of the pillars of Islam and a direct connection between the servant and Allah. When performed with Khushu—a state of inner humility, mindfulness, and submission—it becomes even more powerful and transformative. The Qur’an says:

“Successful indeed are the believers, those who offer their Salah with Khushu‘.”

(Surah Al-Mu’minun 23:1-2)

Virtues of Salah with Khushu:

Spiritual Peace: Salah with Khushu brings tranquility to the heart and soul. It quiets the chaos of daily life.

Strengthens Faith: It deepens the connection with Allah, reminding the believer of their purpose and dependence on Him.

Purifies the Heart: Regular prayer with sincere focus purifies intentions and builds character.

Prevents Sin: As stated in the Qur’an: “Indeed, Salah prevents from indecency and evil.” (29:45)

challenges by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. ;

Despite being the best of creation, he lived simply, served others, and never boasted.

He mended his clothes, sat on the ground, and greeted children and the poor with equal kindness.

He said: “I am only a servant. I eat like a servant eats, and I sit like a servant sits.” (Abu Ya’la)

lessons we can take ;

1. -Acknowledge That Everything Comes from Allah
Our intelligence, looks, skills, and success are all gifts. Recognizing this keeps our ego in check.

2. Treat Everyone with Respect
- Whether someone is rich or poor, educated or not — treat all people with equal dignity.

# data[].attributes.body
In this week , we learn about the virtues found in Sawm (fasting) and how we should emphasise how we value our natural resources when we are Ṣawm (fasting).

Sawm is one of the five pillars of Islam. It is not only an act of worship, but also a spiritual, physical, and social discipline that purifies the soul and brings us closer to Allah.

Key Virtues of Sawm:

1. Taqwa (God-consciousness):

Allah says in the Qur’an:
“O you who believe, fasting has been prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, so that you may attain taqwa.”
(Surah Al-Baqarah 2:183)

Fasting teaches us self-control and mindfulness, making us more conscious of our actions and our relationship with Allah.

2. Patience and Inner Strength :

Fasting builds sabr (patience). It teaches us how to endure hunger, thirst, and avoid negative behavior such as anger, gossip, or lying.

How to Apply These Lessons ;

Plan Meals Wisely: Avoid buying or cooking more than needed.

Share with Others: Donate extra food or invite others to break fast with you.
