Im a BEN student (english)

Im staying at Ipoh right now hehe.

My birthday is on 11 September 2006.

Funfact : i dont eat durian and i hate the smell of it.

And this is my journey throughout usrah!!

Quran is the book of guidance that shall be used all the time as our source of information as it is the one and only unchanging book given by Allah as our clue in life.

Belief in Allah, in angel , and Quran

know and trust that Allah is the one and only god for us and there is no one else.

Belief in angel which is the creation of Allah. Belief in Quran which is given by Allah to help humanity

Belief in rasul which is the messenger of Allah. Belief in the judgement day, belief that we will be death one day and rise from it with the power of Allah. Belief in qada and qadar, Allah is the best planner and what happen in our life is planned by Allah and solely his decision to see which the best for us.

This is the end of usrah, thank you for following me throughout my journey here…

Theres a lot of things i gain , not only knowledge but also friends.

I learn more deeply about islam and its understanding.

Usrah with sr mardhiah is fun and fascinating all the time !

I wish to be a better person in the future and learn many more other thing in life.

Amin

Here are three virtues found in Sadaqah and Zakah:

   Sadaqah and Zakah help the poor and needy. This makes people feel cared for and strengthens love between Muslims. It creates unity and a strong Muslim community.

3. Tazkiyyah (Purification)
   As mentioned in the verse, giving Zakah purifies our hearts from greed and cleans our wealth. It helps us become better people and makes our money more blessed.

1. TADHIYYAH is also called "qurbani" which means sacrifice.

What's the connection between sacrifice and hajj?

Well, In the story of Prophet Ibrahim, he was commanded by Allah to sacrifice his son Ismail. Before he could carry it out, Allah replaced Ismail with a ram. This story took place during the zulhijjah month, which month when muslims perform hajj. Plus, during performing hajj, pilgrims are obligated to sacrifice by Stoning the Jamrah, spending the night in Mina, and increasing acts of worship. These sacrifices are part of the obligatory rituals of Hajj.

2. TAQWA

ٱلْحَجُّ أَشْهُرٌۭ مَّعْلُومَـٰتٌۭ ۚ فَمَن فَرَضَ فِيهِنَّ ٱلْحَجَّ فَلَا رَفَثَ وَلَا فُسُوقَ وَلَا جِدَالَ فِى ٱلْحَجِّ ۗ وَمَا تَفْعَلُوا۟ مِنْ خَيْرٍۢ يَعْلَمْهُ ٱللَّهُ ۗ وَتَزَوَّدُوا۟ فَإِنَّ خَيْرَ ٱلزَّادِ ٱلتَّقْوَىٰ ۚ وَٱتَّقُونِ يَـٰٓأُو۟لِى ٱلْأَلْبَـٰبِ ١٩٧

˹Commitment to˺ pilgrimage is made in appointed months.1 Whoever commits to ˹performing˺ pilgrimage, let them stay away from intimate relations, foul language, and arguments during pilgrimage. Whatever good you do, Allah ˹fully˺ knows of it. Take ˹necessary˺ provisions ˹for the journey˺—surely the best provision is righteousness. And be mindful of Me, O people of reason!

How hajj and umrah build taqwa?

Ihram - teach self-restrain form bad feeling such as anger.

Tawaf and saie - increase humility as everyone regardless of their social status need to circling the kaabah and then it bring us close to Allah.

Wuquf at arafah -

This is the deepest moment of repentance as it raise awareness of Allah peaks in ourself.

Stoning jamrah -Symbolic rejection of Shaytan

Tadhiyyah - Reflects submission and willingness to give up for Allah.

To sum up, without taqwā, the rituals may be performed outwardly but miss their spiritual depth.
