At our first Usrah gathering, we all introduced ourselves to one another. I felt happy because I made new friends. After the introductions, we discussed about the topic of Adab in learning knowledge(manners). We shared our thoughts and opinions on manners in daily life. I felt really excited because I gained new knowledge. That’s all for my story today. Bye-bye!

One of the benefits of performing Hajj is that it helps erase sins, and we are also promised Paradise by Allah. In addition, Hajj strengthens our faith and increases our devotion to Allah as His servants. Oh yaa, we also read Al-Mulk together hihi

That’s all from me for today. Bye-bye!

I have also learned about the ten names of angels, each with their own specific duties. In addition, there are four holy books that every Muslim must know: the Zabur, the Torah, the Injil and the Quran.

That’s all for my sharing today.Bye-bye!

That's all from me, bye byeee!

It is a day of truth, where no one can escape accountability, and every action, big or small, will be weighed. Belief in Qiyāmah encourages Muslims to live a righteous life, remain conscious of their deeds, and seek Allah’s mercy and forgiveness.

That's all byebyeee!

USRAH SECT 48

In addition, we discussed the topic of ‘Acquisition of the Hikmah (wisdom) of Ibadah (worship)’ and its positive values.

In Islam, niyyah (intention) is the foundation of every act of worship. A sincere intention to seek the pleasure of Allah gives value to our deeds. As the hadith teaches, actions are judged by intentions. Once the right niyyah is set, one must perform righteous actions, stay consistent, avoid showing off (riya’), and do everything with excellence (ihsan). This alignment of intention and action is what brings true meaning and reward in the sight of Allah.

That's all for today's usrah.

“The reasons and sources of hikmah (wisdom) from ibadah.”

Salah, Sawm, Zakah, and Hajj shape a Muslim’s character and bring them closer to Allah. Salah instills sincerity and prevents sinful acts. Sawm builds taqwa and discipline. Zakah purifies wealth and the soul, while helping those in need. Hajj cleanses the self, erases sins, and teaches complete obedience to Allah.

That’s all for this usrah session.

Today, we discussed the topic “Preparation for Salah with Khushu’.”

As we know, to achieve khushu’ in salah, one must begin with proper preparation especially through taharah (purification). Physical cleanliness reflects spiritual readiness and helps the heart stay focused during prayer. Taharah is performed through wudhu’, ghusl (in a state of major impurity), or tayammum (when water is unavailable). These acts not only make salah valid but also prepare the mind and soul for a deeper connection with Allah.

Fulfilling the pillars of salah, such as intention, recitation, bowing, and prostration, ensures the prayer is complete and meaningful. The validity of salah (sah) depends on key conditions like proper purification, covering the ‘awrah, facing the qiblah, and praying within the prescribed time.

For those travelling, Islam provides concessions through jama’ (combining prayers) and qasar (shortening four-unit prayers) to help maintain consistency and devotion even in times of difficulty.

In summary, preparation through taharah, observing the pillars and conditions of salah, and understanding the flexibility of jama’ and qasar all help a believer to perform salah with sincerity, calmness, and true khushu’.

Okayy, that’s all for today! 😊

As Muslims, we must perform acts of worship to Allah with excellence and sincerity.

Salah nurtures key virtues like submission, struggle, self-reflection, modesty, and humility. It trains the believer to sincerely obey Allah, resist distractions, reflect on their actions, and maintain both inner and outer purity. By performing salah with focus, clean attire, and sincere intention, one can develop these noble qualities and strengthen their connection with Allah.

That’s all for today’s sharing, alhamdulillah!

This time, we discussed the topic:

“Virtues Found in Sawm (Fasting)”.

For everyone’s knowledge, fasting is an obligation for every Muslim.

Sawm (fasting) instills several noble virtues in a believer.

One of the main virtues is taqwa God-consciousness by helping the heart stay connected to Allah throughout the day. It also teaches patience, as one refrains from food, drink, and desires. Sawm develops self-discipline and control over the nafs (ego), encouraging the believer to avoid sinful acts. Fasting nurtures empathy and compassion toward the poor, as it allows one to experience hunger and hardship. Additionally, it builds gratitude for Allah’s blessings and sincerity, as only Allah truly knows the effort behind the fast. Through all this, Sawm strengthens a person’s spirituality and moral character.

Okay, that’s all for today!

🌿

Zakah and sadaqah cultivate powerful moral and social virtues. They nurture generosity by teaching Muslims to give sincerely for the sake of Allah, not for praise or reward.

These acts also help purify the soul from greed, pride, and selfishness. Zakah promotes social justice by reducing the gap between the rich and the poor, and ensuring the needy are supported. Through giving, a Muslim also builds gratitude for what they have and develops a stronger sense of empathy and responsibility toward others. It strengthens community bonds and reminds us that wealth is a trust from Allah to be shared.

That's all from me!

For everyone’s knowledge, 🕋 Hajj and Umrah are acts of worship that deeply shape a Muslim’s character. These journeys cultivate obedience and discipline, as every ritual follows precise instructions from Allah and His Prophet. They also teach humility, as millions gather wearing simple clothing, leaving behind worldly titles and status. Hajj purifies the soul from sins, renews faith, and instills a powerful sense of unity among Muslims from around the world. It encourages patience, self-control, and a strong commitment to Allah’s commandments.

By performing Hajj or Umrah, one returns with a heart that is more grateful, cleansed, and spiritually uplifted.

That’s all for today’s sharing. Bye!!

This semester’s usrah has truly helped me improve my understanding of religious knowledge, especially in areas such as prayer, fasting, and charity. Through this usrah, I also had the opportunity to get to know more friends from different courses. I hope that my usrah mates and I will continue to practise and apply the knowledge we have gained.

Hehe, I hope all the knowledge I’ve shared will benefit the readers. Bye bye!!
