since the mid-term break is extended we need to do our meetings via google meet. so the topic is about pillars of faith. Allah has mentioned five of the components of faith in Surah Al-Baqarah, verse: 177. “... Righteousness (is the quality of) the one who believes in Allah, the Last Day, the Angels, the Books, the Prophets and gives wealth, in spite of love for it, to relatives, orphans, the needy, the traveler, those who ask for help, and frees slaves...”

week 3 topic is about preparing for prayer with concentration (khusyu'). we discussed about how to achieve khusyu' in our prayer. there's 2 things that can hinder khusyu' in prayer. the first is shubhat and the other one is shahwat. but by practicing tamahhum and tadabbur in salah, it can help us gain khusyu' in our prayer.

this week we continue the topic of preparing for prayer with concentration, with its virtues. prayer without khusyu' is valid but we will earn less reward. we figure out how do we know whether we have khusyu' or not. prayer is our way to communicate with Allah SWT. so it's good for us if we can perform it in a perfect state.
