TAWAF,EXPLAINED by Iman Haziq Talib Sabri https://padlet.com/imanhaziqtalib/or6fcshw3xs174de A Brief Explanation On Tawaf en-us 2023-02-23 14:15:47 UTC 2023-02-26 18:19:55 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f607.png USRAH II ROLEPLAY:TAWAF IN HAJI imanhaziqtalib https://padlet.com/imanhaziqtalib/or6fcshw3xs174de/wish/2492634490 The term ‘Tawaf’ is derived from the Arabic verb ‘Taafa’, which means ‘to encircle something’ or ‘to walk around something’. In the Islamic context, Tawaf refers to taking rounds or encircling the Holy Ka’abah seven times in an anti-clockwise direction as part of Umrah or Hajj, starting from Hajr-al-Aswad (the black stone). It’s among the most significant obligations of both Hajj and Umrah, without which the greater and minor pilgrimage would be incomplete. When performing Tawaf, pilgrims recite Takbir and various other supplications based on the Sunnah of the Prophet SAW.]]> 2023-02-23 14:27:46 UTC https://padlet.com/imanhaziqtalib/or6fcshw3xs174de/wish/2492634490 WHY IS TAWAF IMPORTANT? imanhaziqtalib https://padlet.com/imanhaziqtalib/or6fcshw3xs174de/wish/2492647462 - A practice of worship/an act of devotion that brings the pilgrim closer to Allah.
- Al-Bayt Al-Ma'mur: pilgrims perform Tawaf in tandem with the angels that circumambulate Al-Bayt Al-Ma’mur or ‘the Flourishing House’, the heavenly counterpart of the Holy Ka’abah, all the time. This means that the angels perform Tawaf around Al-Bayt Al-Ma’mur to worship Allah just as Muslims perform Tawaf around the Holy Kaaba in Masjidil Haram.
- The Circular Motion of the Universe: the act of Tawaf is also a reflection of the orbiting motions of the heavenly bodies of this universe.]]> 2023-02-23 14:36:23 UTC https://padlet.com/imanhaziqtalib/or6fcshw3xs174de/wish/2492647462 WHY DO MUSLIMS DO TAWAF 7 TIMES? imanhaziqtalib https://padlet.com/imanhaziqtalib/or6fcshw3xs174de/wish/2492656048 Tawaf is an act of worship and regardless of the type of worship we perform, we do not ask why there are to be performed in a certain fashion. We simply perform them because God commanded us and in a way prescribed and taught by the Holy Prophet SAW.

We believe that Allah Ta’ala possesses infinite wisdom, which is why He never orders anything unwise, but we don’t necessarily need to know the science behind every command. 

The purpose of Tawaf is to represent the notion that our lives should revolve around remembering and staying obedient to Allah Ta’ala. By performing Tawaf, we reinforce the centrality of the spiritual focus that we face while performing the daily prayers.

It basically refers to the act of circumambulating the Holy Ka’abah in Masjid al-Haram in reverence to God. The importance of Tawaf can be judged by the fact that it connects you with Allah, reflects every orbiting matter in this universe, forms a necessary step in greater and lesser pilgrimage, and more.

Performing Tawaf is not complicated, but make sure you are aware of the prerequisites such as Ihram in certain types of Tawaf, purity requirements, and the dos and don’ts of performing the ritual. Also, there are five different types of Tawafs.

The most apparent lesson  I learnt from this usrah group is that it teaches me to become more open-minded and be friendly to other people. During my first meeting in this usrah,I have met various friends from different backgrounds. We introduced ourselves to each other and from that,it teaches me to become more involved in communication with other people and be able to hear other's opinion and stories.

Other than that, this usrah have taught me new additional knowledges about Islam and its wide components. This usrah group have made discussions about Islam more fun and entertaining because everyone is encouraged to voice their opinion and takes on certain matters. In addition,this usrah group also helps me in analysing currrent trending issues regarding the Muslim community so that we can take precautions and lessons from it.

Lastly,usrah have taught me in maintaining silaturrahim between my fellow usrah-mates and creating a positive and wonderful environment. From this usrah,the concept of brotherhood is important because usrah can be considered as our second family to share our thoughts and have fun times together.

Everyone are involved in voicing their opinions on selected topics and there are freedom of speech for every usrah-mates. The naqib also did a great job in handling this usrah group and in concluding the selected topics with words that are easier to comprehend. Some suggestion that i would make for future reference is the usrah can have physical activities that could bring more positive interaction between usrah-mates suitable to the topics given. Other than that,the naqib can also use media platforms such as Youtube for discussions as an alternative method to be used in usrah.Last but not least, the discussion topics can be chosen from outside the textbook so that it wouldn't be repetitive.]]> 2023-02-26 18:18:43 UTC https://padlet.com/imanhaziqtalib/or6fcshw3xs174de/wish/2495429529
