During the first week of Usrah, I learned about Adab. Here is the summary that I get.

The important element of having Adab is to have proper decorum and etiquette internally and externally. There are a few types of Adab. This includes adab of humility. The greatest impediment is arrogance. This phrase suggests that arrogance or an inflated sense of one's own importance and abilities, can be a major obstacle to progress and success. Other than that, learn your knowledge and for that, you need to learn tranquility (calm state) and forbearance (patience, tolerance) while having humility with those you are learning from.

Furthermore, Adab of questioning. Not adhering to proper questioning etiquette can hinder effective communication, damage relationships and impede learning and collaboration. Half of knowledge is asking proper questions. Remedy to illness of body, mind and heart is asking question. Ask only relevant question. Sometimes, feeding curiosity is not beneficial. Dealing with stranger properly, not all stranger is an outsider, but this not applicable in all situation.

In conclusion, manners are essential for fostering respectful and harmonious interactions in both personal and professional contexts. By adhering to principles of courtesy, empathy, and consideration, individuals can enhance communication, build stronger relationships, and create a positive environment. Good manners not only reflect personal values but also contribute to a culture of mutual respect and understanding. Ultimately, practising and valuing manners helps individuals navigate social complexities and promote a more considerate and cooperative society.

Overall, my experience with my Usrah has been better than I anticipated. At first, honestly, I thought it would be a burden and just a waste of time. But even after the first week of Usrah, I loved it.

As the weeks went by, I found myself looking forward to each session. The discussions that my naqibah shared were not only insightful but also helped me grow both spiritually and personally. I enjoyed the sense of community, the support from my fellow Usrah members, and the opportunity to reflect on important values.

Going forward, I hope to deepen my understanding of the sharing we’ve discussed and continue applying them in my daily life. I also wish for our Usrah to stay connected, grow stronger as a group, and inspire one another to be the best versions of ourselves.

I also want to take this opportunity to thank my naqibah, who worked hard to find points and ideas to make our Usrah better and more enjoyable. I truly enjoyed every activity that was held. I’m also thankful for my Usrah members because they are supportive and fun.
