This document provides an introduction and lessons from an Islamic studies course on 'Ilm al-Akhlaq (the study of ethics and morality) conducted in English for adult Muslims. The course uses texts and a curriculum developed for Muslim converts and English-speaking youth. It discusses verses from the Quran on proper conduct towards Allah, the Prophet, and others. Lessons include lowering one's voice in the Prophet's presence, avoiding gossip, backbiting, and insulting others. The document stresses repentance and seeking forgiveness from Allah.
The document outlines a lesson on the key aspects of Islam according to a hadith of Jibril. It discusses the three important aspects: Islam (submission to Allah), Iman (faith), and Ihsan (striving for excellence in worship). While Islam and Iman involve deeds and belief, they are not sufficient without Ihsan - directing all acts of worship to Allah alone with the consciousness of His presence. True worship requires correct belief, actions, and intentions, with the latter known only to Allah. The document emphasizes cultivating a state of Taqwa (consciousness of Allah) in all aspects of life.
This document discusses the importance of humility in seeking knowledge and being grateful. It emphasizes that one should continually strive to learn the true value of what they have been given and to not take blessings for granted. True scholars remain aware of how little they still know and constantly reflect on improving their understanding of what they have already learned. Humility prevents arrogance and allows one to benefit fully from knowledge.
The document describes a beginners' course on Islam conducted in English by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail. It provides information on the course, including that it covers lessons on Fardhu 'Ain (obligatory duties) for adult Muslims and discusses topics such as the articles of faith in Islam. The course consists of weekly classes held on Friday nights and uses a textbook developed by the instructor for Muslim converts and English-speaking adults.
The document discusses traditional and contemporary Islamic scholarship. It notes that while traditional madrasah education aims to preserve religious knowledge, it may not fully encompass Islamic education. Truly Islamic education integrates religious and worldly knowledge in a holistic way. Colonialism disrupted this system, limiting madrasah focus to religious basics due to limited resources. The document advocates learning from conferences on Muslim education that address developing Islamic education models for the modern world. It defines the goal of Islamic education as nurturing good character based on hadith about properly educating children with adab (good manners).
The document discusses a beginner's course on Islam taught in English for adults and conducted by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail.

The document provides details on the topics that will be covered, including definitions, hadith, and verses from the Quran related to various aspects of the pillars of Islam and acts of worship like prayer.
The document discusses controversies surrounding bid'ah (innovation in religious matters) and provides clarity on the issue. It notes that Islamic scholars differ in their definitions of bid'ah and how it relates to sunnah (the way of the Prophet). While some strictly define anything not done by the Prophet as bid'ah and reject it, most scholars do not reject all new things or bid'ah as reprehensible, but accept certain bid'ah, especially if it does not contradict the Quran and sunnah. Hadiths are also cited discussing the importance of following the sunnah and avoiding dissension and new matters that cause misguidance.

This document advertises and provides information about a beginners' course on Islam conducted in English by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail. The course consists of 18 weekly classes held on Friday nights covering lessons from a textbook on Islam.

The course is open to Muslim converts, young English-speaking Muslims, and provides a refresher for Muslim parents and educators. Contact information is provided for further details and registration.
This document provides an overview of a beginners' course on Islam conducted in English for adults. It covers Lesson #11, which discusses the second pillar of Islam - Salah or obligatory daily prayer. The lesson is taught using a textbook and curriculum developed by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail. It explores hadiths and Quranic verses about acknowledging Allah as the sole God and creator, and how establishing regular prayer is one way for Muslims to outwardly manifest their inner conviction and obedience to Allah.

This document summarizes a talk given by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail about reflecting on the message of the Quran. The talk discusses several key points:
1) The innermost purpose of creation is for all beings to recognize and submit to God's will.
2) Worship is meant as an instrument for inner development by consciously surrendering to God's will to better understand it.
3) The Quran commands mankind to worship God alone who created everything and provides sustenance, and not to attribute equals to Him.
4) Fasting in Ramadan is prescribed to attain taqwa (consciousness of God) and self-restraint, and is meant to make
“Sebuah susunan Du’a yang juga mengandungi pengajaran tentang harapan (matlamat) untuk tiap-tiap anggota masyarakat memohon dari Allah agar mencapainya, agar Ummat kita ini kelak dapat di-katakan meraih kemenangan yang sebenarnya (Hakiki).”
The document discusses the concept of Ihsan in Islam. Ihsan refers to striving to worship Allah as if one sees Him, or is conscious of His ever-presence. It involves having correct beliefs, deeds, and most importantly, intentions - doing things solely for Allah's pleasure and with mindfulness of being accountable to Him on the Day of Judgment. Attaining Ihsan leads one to a state of Taqwa (consciousness and fear of Allah) and ensures one's actions are rooted in submission to Allah rather than seeking worldly gains or recognition.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
