What I have learnt:

1.Ihsan

-It means to worship Allah as if you see Him, and if you cannot see Him, know that He sees you.

-Teaches ikhlas or sincerity in every act.

Lesson-Ihsan reminds us that Allah is always watching, so we should do everything with sincerity and excellence.

2.Islamic Eschatology (Belief in the Hereafter)

-Day of Judgement:All humans will be resurrected and judged.

-Accountability:Every action, big or small, will be taken into account.

-Reward and Punishment:Paradise for the righteous, and Hellfire for the wrongdoers.

-Lesson-Islamic Eschatology teaches responsibility for our deeds, hope for Allah's mercy and fear for His punishment.

Preparation of Salah with Khushu’

• Salah (Prayer) is an obligation for every Muslim who is Islam, sane, and has reached puberty.

• Wudu’ is invalidated by things like sleeping deeply, losing consciousness, or anything exiting the body.
