4 main elements in usrah

1. Taaruf: knowing each other

2. Tafahum: understanding each other

3. Taawun: helping each other

4. Takaful: take care of each other

Set a right intention (niyyah)

- start with your niyyah. Set it right, do it for Allah, do it for the long-life benefits of it, do it for society, to mengeratkan silaturrahim. Not only to pass.

"Inna maa a'malu bil niyyah."

- Why do you join usrah?

- What do you expect

Right amal - ikhlas

- even kita rasa benda tu tak berbaloi, in the eyes of Allah, he accept our testimonies.

- sometimes it's hard to know whether we're ikhlas or not. So just continue doing it, one day it will come by itself.

Ihsan

- A feeling of being watched by Allah in anything we do.

- Muhsin; the highest form of a believer.

- Doing something wholeheartedly, because of Allah.

Reasons and sources of hikmah of ibadah

- Salah is a way to discipline ourselves.

- Sawm develops taqwa, empathy and discipline.

- It helps believers; recognize Allah's constant observation, weakening Satan's influence, fostering acts of worship.

3. Zakat

- At-Tawbah, 103

- Zakat is about property.

- It purifies wealth and self, fostering generosity and reducing greed.

- It cleanses sins and bad habits and supports the needy.

- Zakat gives benefits for us and people around us.

4. Hajj

- Al-Baqarah, 197

After 7 weeks of meeting each other, I can conclude that this usrah had changed something within me. This programme allows me to relearn things I might have forgotten due to lost of times, and reminds me of the importance of learning and having friends to learn with.

I hope that when I entered main campus in Gombak, the usrah there would do the same, bringing me into lots and more good things and knowledges.
