This document discusses da'wah (Islamic proselytizing) in Singapore. It notes that while conversion rates to Islam have been substantial, this is not due to organized da'wah programs, but rather personal encounters. It argues that interested non-Muslims should be provided relevant teachings about Islam to accept its truth, using a "da'wah-mode" approach rather than standard Islamic education curricula. Direct da'wah to non-Muslims also requires wisdom and knowledge to navigate Singapore's multi-religious context. The way Islam is taught to Muslims has also lost its "da'wah-spirit", focusing more on academic study than subjecting oneself to Islam.
This document discusses bringing back the spirit of da'wah, or calling others to Islam, among Muslims. It focuses on properly learning and practicing the fundamental teachings and obligations of Islam. The author expresses concern that many Muslims learn about their religion through conventional education systems without fully integrating it into their lives. The document emphasizes striving to fulfill religious duties with the right intention of growing closer to God, and avoiding distraction. It encourages revisiting basic topics like obligations in Islam while keeping da'wah, or sharing Islam with others, in mind. The overall message is about properly understanding and living out Islamic teachings.
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).
This document appears to be notes from an Islamic studies course conducted in English by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail. It contains explanations of Islamic concepts like ibadah, nafilah, tattawua, and khidmah. It discusses the meaning of volunteerism and emphasizes that true worship is for Allah alone. Excerpts are provided on inviting others to Islam with wisdom and on the pillars of Islam, including the shahadah declaration of faith. The document stresses submitting one's will to Allah and properly understanding key terms like Islam, iman, and aqidah.

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.

ADAB FOR WORKING LIFE
A MUSLIM SHARING OF HIS EXPERIENCE FROM THE TRADITIONAL ISLAMIC PERSPECTIVE
This document discusses da'wah (Islamic preaching/outreach) in Singapore, providing a critique and assessment. It notes that while conversion rates to Islam have been substantial, this has generally not been the result of organized da'wah programs directed at non-Muslims. Instead, most conversions happen indirectly through personal interactions. It argues that interested non-Muslims should be engaged through reasoned, evidence-based teaching tailored to their needs and backgrounds. Fears about violating religious harmony laws may have discouraged more proactive da'wah. The document also notes that Islamic education for Muslims in Singapore has increasingly become academic rather than emphasizing living according to Islamic principles.
This document provides an introduction to a course on 'Ilm Al-Akhlaq (the study of ethics) aimed at Muslim converts and young English-speaking Muslims. It discusses building one's submission to Allah based on five aspects: relationship to oneself, Allah, others, ego-centricity leading to sins in relationships, and the importance of taqwa (consciousness of Allah). Taqwa involves being cautious of sins to avoid Allah's wrath, and is the noblest quality according to the Quran. The document seeks to clarify understandings of this important Islamic concept.
This document discusses approaches to learning Islamic jurisprudence (fiqh) in the context of Singapore. It references several Quranic verses emphasizing the importance of seeking knowledge and educating Muslims.

The document stresses the crucial role of Muslim scholars and teachers in preserving Islamic education.
The document discusses traditional fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) reference books and how to properly use them. It recommends that one should not attempt to self-study from texts alone without guidance from an Islamic teacher. It provides a list of reference books for the Shafi'i madhhab that are available in English, with the reminder that this is not an exhaustive list and students should primarily seek knowledge from religious teachers in their community.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
