My name is Farisha. I am a student who enjoys learning new things and improving myself. In my free time, I like cooking, watching Netflix, and reciting the Quran. I always aim to achieve good results in my studies, with the goal of getting a CGPA of 3.5 or above.

the topic for this week are :

Adab in seeking knowledge .

Al-Quran as a book of guidence .

💫 What I understand about adab in seeking knowledge means having proper manners in learning, such as sincerity, discipline, and respect . Our intention must be solely for Allah, cause adab is on of the key to gaining blessings and benefits from knowledge .

Simple examples of adab in seeking knowledge:

  (𝟏) 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬

Listening attentively .

Take note what the teacher explains in class .

Don’t shy to ask .

    (𝟐) 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞

being punctual and focused during lessons .

Always prepare for the class .

  (𝟑)  𝐇𝐮𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲

not being arrogant with the knowledge gained .

💫 As we know , Al-quran is a book of guidance means it is the main source of direction for Muslims in every aspect of life. It shows the right path in faith , worship , morals and others . By living a lifestyle guided by the Qur’an , inshaAllah one will never go astray and will achieve success in this world and the Hereafter . Also a person will gain blessings and inner peace in their life .

💫 We learn about hadith Jibril . In this hadith , it highlights the foundation of Islam , which consists of Islam , Iman and Ihsan . Islam emphasizes outward practices , Iman relates to inner belief while Ihsan is worshipping sincerely as if seeing Allah . It also reminds us about the Day of Judgement , making this hadith a summary of the religion . Also , it complete guidance for a Muslim’s life .

💫 The Pillars of Islam is not a foreign topic as I believe all the Muslim must learn about it and practicing in our daily life . All Muslims around the world learn and heard about the same things for many times and practice the same things in their daily life . For example , we must fulfill the obligatory acts such as :

prayer

fasting

giving zakat

upholding the shahadah

hajj

By practicing this in our daily life , a Muslim’s life will become more peaceful and brings us closer to Allah . Also , it ultimately leads to success in this world and paradise in the Hereafter .

✨ In our first usrah session, we started with a simple introduction among the members. Our naqibah also gave a brief explanation about the importance of usrah.

🔎 Topics for this week:

1. Adab in Seeking Knowledge

2. Al-Qur’an as a Book of Guidance

💡 Adab in Seeking Knowledge

Adab means having the right manners in learning, such as sincerity, discipline, and respect. Our intention must be solely for Allah, because adab is the key to receiving blessings and benefits from knowledge.

Examples of adab in seeking knowledge:

1. Respecting Teachers – Listen attentively, take notes, and don’t be shy to ask questions.

2. Discipline – Be punctual, stay focused, and always come prepared for class.

3. Humility – Do not be arrogant with the knowledge you have gained.

💡 Al-Qur’an as a Book of Guidance

The Qur’an is the main source of direction for Muslims in every aspect of life. It guides us in faith, worship, morals, and daily conduct. By living a lifestyle guided by the Qur’an, inshaAllah we will never go astray and will achieve success in this world and the Hereafter, as well as gain blessings and inner peace.

✨ This week, we learned about the Pillars of Islam. Even though it is the same topic as in the Understanding Islam subject, the discussion in usrah helped me to gain a deeper understanding.

💡 Hadith Jibril

We also learned about the Hadith Jibril, which highlights the foundation of Islam: Islam, Iman, and Ihsan.

• Islam → focuses on outward practices.

• Iman → relates to inner belief.

• Ihsan → worshipping sincerely as if seeing Allah.

The hadith also reminds us about the Day of Judgement, making it a summary of the entire religion and a complete guidance for a Muslim’s life.

💡 The Pillars of Islam

This topic is not something new, as every Muslim is required to learn and practice it in daily life. All Muslims around the world hear and apply the same practices, which include:

• Shahadah (faith)

• Salah (prayer)

• Sawm (fasting)

• Zakat (almsgiving)

• Hajj (pilgrimage)

By practicing these pillars in our daily life, we can attain peace, draw closer to Allah, and ultimately achieve success in this world and Paradise in the Hereafter.

As we have learned, the six pillars of Iman are the most important foundation in a Muslim’s life. Without them, a person would not have a strong basis in religion, as they guide us in believing and having faith in the unseen matters decreed by Allah.

For this week, we focused on three pillars of Iman, while the remaining three will be continued next week:

🌟 Belief in Allah

We believe that Allah is the One and Only God, who has power over everything. He created us, provides for us, and deserves our worship alone.

🌟 Belief in Angels

Angels are Allah’s obedient creations who never disobey Him. Each angel has a specific duty, such as protecting humans, recording deeds, and delivering revelation.

🌟 Belief in the Holy Books

Allah revealed divine books as guidance for humankind, including the Torah, Psalms, Gospel, and the Qur’an. The Qur’an is the final and complete revelation, serving as the main source of guidance for all Muslims.

✨ Al-Ihsan

• Ihsan means worshipping Allah as if you see Him, and if not, believing that He always sees you.

• It emphasizes sincerity and awareness in all actions.

📖 Qur’an & Hadith

• The Qur’an links ihsan with righteousness and piety.

• Hadith Jibril: Ihsan = worshipping with full consciousness of Allah’s presence.

⏳ Relation to Eschatology (Hereafter)

• Ihsan prepares us for the Day of Judgment.

• It connects faith, actions, and awareness of accountability.

✅ Conclusion

Ihsan is the highest level of worship, rooted in sincerity and the belief in the Hereafter.

• Only Allah knows when the Hour will come.

• Qur’an: The Day will arrive suddenly, terrifying for all creation.

💡 Reflection:

✨ Definition of Adab

• It is both a quality and a process — can be learned and developed.

💫 Key Lessons

• True adab is tested through our treatment of parents and elders.

• Adab is not just politeness — it’s living Islam in daily life.

This week, I learned that Adab means more than just good manners — it is a reflection of our faith and character. The story of Prophet Ibrahim A.S. taught me how to show kindness and respect even in disagreement. Adab helps me understand that every action should be done with sincerity and wisdom.

🌱 Improvement

I will try to speak more gently to my parents and others, be more patient, and control my emotions when facing disagreements. I also want to practice good manners in daily life as part of my worship to Allah.

This week’s usrah reminded me that seeking knowledge is not only about studying, but also about having the right manners and sincerity. I learned that adab towards teachers and classmates brings blessings to our learning. The Qur’an, as a book of guidance, also teaches me to always return to Allah’s words in every situation.

🌱 Improvement

I will try to strengthen my discipline in learning, be more respectful and attentive during classes, and recite the Qur’an regularly. I also want to improve my intention in seeking knowledge — doing it sincerely for the sake of Allah.

This week’s usrah helped me understand the deeper meaning behind the Pillars of Islam and the Hadith Jibril. I realized that Islam is not just about rituals, but also about strengthening our faith (Iman) and sincerity (Ihsan) in worship. The hadith reminds me that our actions should always reflect belief in Allah and awareness of the Hereafter.

🌱 Improvement

I will try to improve my concentration during prayer, renew my intention in every act of worship, and be more consistent in performing good deeds. I also want to practice Ihsan by being mindful that Allah is always watching me in everything I do.

This week’s usrah deepened my understanding of the first three pillars of Iman — belief in Allah, His angels, and His books. I realized that having faith in these unseen matters strengthens my connection with Allah and reminds me that everything in life happens by His will. It also makes me appreciate the Qur’an more as the complete and final guidance for all mankind.

🌱 Improvement

I will try to strengthen my faith by reading and reflecting on the Qur’an regularly. I also want to remember Allah more through dhikr and be more mindful of my actions, knowing that the angels are always recording everything I do.

This week’s usrah reminded me that the six pillars of Iman are the true foundation of a Muslim’s life. I learned that believing in Allah, His angels, books, messengers, the Hereafter, and divine decree helps strengthen my faith and trust in Allah’s plan. It also made me realize that every event in life has a purpose, and having strong faith brings peace and gratitude.

🌱 Improvement

I will try to strengthen my relationship with Allah by increasing my remembrance of Him and accepting everything that happens with patience and contentment. I also want to improve my consistency in reading the Qur’an and following the Prophet’s teachings in my daily life.

This week’s usrah helped me understand that Ihsan is the highest level of faith — to worship Allah as if I can see Him, and to always remember that He is watching me. It reminded me that sincerity and awareness in every action are what truly make our deeds valuable in the sight of Allah. Ihsan also motivates me to be more mindful and to do every act with excellence.

🌱 Improvement

I will try to perform my prayers with more focus and sincerity, and remind myself that Allah is always watching me. I also want to improve my daily actions — studying, helping others, and speaking kindly — with the intention to please Allah and earn His reward in the Hereafter.

This week’s usrah about Qiyamah reminded me that the Day of Judgment is real and can happen at any time. Learning about the minor and major signs made me realize how close the end could be and how important it is to always be prepared. It also strengthened my belief that life in this world is temporary, and our actions today determine our place in the Hereafter.

🌱 Improvement

I will try to increase my remembrance of Allah and improve my prayers and deeds to prepare for the Hereafter. I also want to avoid wasting time on worldly distractions and focus more on doing good, helping others, and seeking forgiveness every day.

This week’s usrah about adab reminded me how important it is to practice good manners and respect in daily life, especially towards parents and elders. Learning about Prophet Ibrahim A.S.’s example made me realize that adab is not just about politeness but also about showing patience, wisdom, and love even in difficult situations. It made me reflect on my own behavior and how sometimes I act impulsively or speak without thinking, which may not reflect true adab.

🌱 Improvement

I will try to be more mindful of my speech and actions, ensuring they reflect respect and kindness. I want to actively practice patience and humility, particularly with my parents and elders, and respond gently even when I disagree. I also aim to develop better self-discipline in daily life, so my adab becomes consistent and not just situational.

During Usrah 72, I reflected on my personal habits and character. I realized that sometimes I lack patience, am inconsistent in my worship, and could improve how I treat others. The session reminded me that knowledge alone is not enough; I need to act on what I learn.

To improve, I plan to be more disciplined in my prayers, practice patience and kindness, and remember Allah more in my daily life. I also want to participate actively in discussions and take notes to apply the lessons better.

Overall, Usrah 72 helped me understand my weaknesses and inspired me to take practical steps toward becoming a better person in both my faith and character.

Niyyah is the starting point of every action, as it determines whether an act is accepted by Allah or merely a routine. With sincere intention, even daily activities such as studying and helping others can be counted as ibadah. Hikmah allows Muslims to understand the wisdom behind Allah’s commands, making obedience more meaningful rather than forced. Ibadah reflects total submission to Allah and covers both ritual worship and daily actions performed sincerely for His pleasure.

Key points discussed:

• Niyyah determines the value and acceptance of every action.

• Hikmah helps Muslims appreciate the wisdom behind Islamic teachings.

• Ibadah includes both specific acts of worship and daily good deeds.

• Sincere intention transforms ordinary actions into acts of worship.

Ibadah is performed to acknowledge Allah as the Creator and to show complete obedience to Him. The purpose of ibadah is not only to fulfil religious obligations, but also to discipline the soul and guide Muslims towards a balanced and righteous life. Through ibadah, Muslims develop self-control, patience, and consistency in obeying Allah’s commands, which strengthens their relationship with Him.

Purpose of ibadah:

• To worship and obey Allah sincerely.

• To strengthen the relationship between a servant and Allah.

• To develop discipline, patience, and self-control.

• To guide Muslims towards a righteous and balanced lifestyle.

Khushu’ refers to humility, focus, and full awareness when performing salah. It requires the heart and mind to be present, understanding that one is standing before Allah. Without khushu’, prayer may become a routine action without spiritual impact. By understanding the meanings of recitations and performing prayer with sincerity, Muslims can achieve khushu’ and feel a deeper connection with Allah.

Elements of khushu’:

• Full concentration and presence of the heart.

• Understanding the meaning of prayer recitations.

• Feeling humility before Allah.

• Avoiding distractions during salah.

Salah performed with khushu’ brings peace and tranquillity to the heart. It strengthens iman and increases mindfulness of Allah in daily life. Prayer with khushu’ also helps prevent immoral behaviour, as it trains a person to control desires and actions. Over time, consistent khushu’ in prayer can shape a Muslim’s character and strengthen spiritual discipline.

Virtues of salah with khushu’:

• Brings inner peace and tranquillity.

• Strengthens iman and spiritual awareness.

• Helps prevent sinful and negative behaviour.

• Develops sincerity and self-discipline.

Allah commands fasting upon believers in order to help them attain taqwa. Fasting teaches Muslims to control their desires, practise patience, and remain grateful for Allah’s blessings. The verse also shows that fasting was prescribed to earlier communities, highlighting its importance as a form of spiritual training. Through fasting, Muslims become more empathetic towards the less fortunate and more conscious of their actions.

Key lessons from Surah Al-Baqarah 2:183:

• Fasting is an obligation prescribed by Allah.

• The main objective of fasting is to attain taqwa.

• Fasting trains patience, self-control, and discipline.

• It increases empathy and gratitude towards Allah’s blessings.

Zakat and sedekah play a significant role in strengthening faith, purifying wealth, and fostering social harmony. Both acts encourage Muslims to care for others while strengthening their relationship with Allah.

Huraian ayat:

• Sedekah mestilah dilakukan dengan niat ikhlas kerana Allah.

In this video, our group will be presenting about "why do we need to be khusyu'?" we can conclude that Khusyu’ is important because it helps us worship Allah with sincerity, focus, and a deeper sense of faith, making our ibadah more meaningful and accepted.

I included my personal biodata and contact information to make the portfolio complete and accessible. The portfolio was shared with the facilitator on time as a sign of responsibility and commitment. Throughout the Usrah sessions, I actively participated and reflected on what I gained each week, including knowledge about ibadah, khushu’, fasting, zakat, and sedekah. These discussions helped me strengthen my understanding of Islamic teachings and apply them in daily life.

In the collaboration section, I described my contribution to the shared artwork and teamwork process. Working together with others taught me cooperation, communication, and respect for different ideas. This experience made the Usrah sessions more meaningful and engaging.

From this Usrah journey, I realised that learning is not only about gaining knowledge but also about improving character and sincerity in worship. For future improvement, I suggest making the sessions more interactive with additional group discussions and practical activities so that everyone can participate more actively. This would help deepen understanding and strengthen ukhuwah among members.
