Week 2

 This is the first ever meeting for all of us!

As the first week was conducted online, after Eid, this was the first week of meeting each members of the Usrah, so the Usrah started with ice-breaking session, each one of the members got to pick one person and guess their name, course, and hometown. Then, the person will introduce themself again.


After that, the Naqibah gave us time to form a group, and each group should have about 5 to 6 members. I was not really familiar with others as I joined the Usrah alone, not knowing others that mush, so I just got into a group of new faces. I didn't know any of them!

Then, after we got into our groups, the instructor gave us the topics that we prepare to do the presentation. My group was chosen to be the first group to do the presentation. Our topic was about 'Preparation of Salah with Khushu' .'

The presentation started on the week 3, right on the next week!


For this week, we watched the video about our intention, 'niah'. This is the link for the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSJawXRPzrg or you can just watch it in a video below.
Each one of us need to summarize the video based on what we understand and what we get from it. The video made me realized something regarding our intention, which we cannot be saying that we do something good, so we need to get a reward, but instead, we need to purify our niah and remind ourself that everything we do is for the sake of Allah.

Week 1

 On the first week of Usrah , the Naqibah introduced the course outline for the Usrah , including what we have to do to pass the course.  It was the first meeting, so the Usrah was just about the course itself, nothing much, but at least it is a good start!  It was during the Ramadhan period, and right before Eid Holiday. Most of us were already home, so the Usrah was held online.  The best thing about this Usrah was that the instructor included Isha' prayer time for about 10-15 minutes. It was very reasonable as we have to be in the Usrah for 2 hours from 8 to 10pm. Imagine being home late, and super tired, straight to the bed... we might have missed the prayer! May Allah bless our Naqibah always for being so thoughtful.  The Naqibah also stated that adding the prayer time is aligned with the course as we would focus on the ibadah , and yup, for sure, the most important ibadah would be prayers, as it is also the first thing to be asked in the hereafter....
