REFLECTION ON TERM “AS-SAFEENAH”
Elucidations to the term “the ship” analogously (amtsal) to the other teachings found in Al-Qur’an and As-Sunnah
The document summarizes several scientific miracles found in the Quran related to topics like human embryonic development, the origin of life in water, the expanding universe, the shape of the earth, mountains, clouds and rain. It notes that modern scientific discoveries have aligned with descriptions of these phenomena found in the 7th century Quran, indicating it could not have been authored by Muhammad without divine revelation.
The document is a lesson plan on the topic of Tawheed (the oneness of God) from an Islamic studies class. It includes:
1) An introduction to the class which meets weekly to discuss Tawheed, including the curriculum and contact information.
2) A recap of the previous lesson on different aspects of Tawheed, including Tawheed al-Khaaliqiyah (oneness in creation) and Tawheed ar-Rububiyah (oneness in sustaining).
3) A discussion of signs of God's existence through reflections on the vastness of the universe and intricacy of creation, according to Islamic scripture and scientific observations.
The document discusses the compatibility of science and the Quran. It presents several scientific phenomena described in the Quran such as iron, the moon's orbit, water, and rain. For rain, it outlines the three stages of formation described in the Quran: 1) winds stir clouds, 2) clouds spread and form clumps, 3) rain pours from clouds. It argues that the Quran provided scientifically accurate explanations of these phenomena centuries before their scientific discovery. In conclusion, the document asserts that scientific statements in the Quran have stood the test of time and have been proven consistent with modern science.

This document summarizes an Islamic studies lesson on building submission to Allah based on five aspects. It discusses concepts like fitrah (natural disposition), taqwa (piety), and striving to attain the highest levels of righteousness. Key points include that Islam is built upon five pillars according to the Prophet Muhammad, and that believers should seek knowledge and submit themselves wholly to Allah by following the Shariah and purifying their souls. The goal is for Muslims to attain true success and human perfection through Islam.
The document provides an overview of an intermediate Islamic studies course on 'Ilm al-Akhlaq (the study of ethics) being conducted in English. It discusses building submission to Allah based on five aspects: righteousness and piety, honor and self-esteem, a sense of belonging, security, and basic needs. Prior lessons addressed topics like striving in the path of Allah, distinguishing between worldly and spiritual success, and self-purification through controlling one's desires. The course aims to help students understand Islam and become truly devoted Muslims.
The document discusses the scientific explanation for the event of Miraj in Islam, where the Prophet Muhammad traveled through the seven heavens. It first provides background on the theory of relativity and its key ideas like time dilation. It then describes the event of Miraj according to Islamic texts, where Muhammad rode a special animal called Buraq extremely fast. The document suggests Albert Einstein may have been inspired by Miraj in developing his theory of relativity, since some aspects like fast travel are consistent with the theory. It aims to show how modern physics can explain Miraj with concepts like relativity.
The document summarizes Hajj, the annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca, and Eid al-Adha, the festival of sacrifice. It discusses how Hajj traces back to the time of Prophet Abraham and how Muslims believe all prophets preached the same monotheistic faith of Islam.

It concludes by noting the global significance of Eid al-Adha for acts of worship and sacrifice.
This document provides an introduction to a study of 'ilm al-akhlaq (the science of ethics) in Islam.

This document discusses principles from the Quran related to authority and leadership. It references verses from Surah An-Nisa that say believers should obey Allah, the Messenger, and those in authority. It also discusses hadith about clinging to the Sunnah of the Prophet and the Rashidun caliphs.

My advice to the women by the shaykhah umm abdillaah al-waadi'iyah 02Shahedur
The document provides an encouragement to be sincere in one's actions and to preserve one's time. It discusses several hadiths of the Prophet Muhammad that emphasize performing deeds solely for the sake of God and avoiding showing off. It also notes how the companions aspired for paradise above all else. Additionally, it stresses the short and fleeting nature of this life and advises making the most of one's free time and health in acts of obedience to God before responsibilities increase. Striving hard for what benefits one in this life and the next is encouraged.
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.

The document is a summary of a talk given by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail on understanding the message of the Quran. It discusses concepts like Istiqomah (steadfastness), taking the straight path, obeying Allah and avoiding disobedience, doing righteous deeds regularly, making religion easy through consistency, and being the best example for others through remembrance of Allah and increasing knowledge. Verses from the Quran and sayings of Prophet Muhammad emphasize establishing prayer, enjoining good and erbidding evil, seeking refuge in Allah, and inviting others to the truth while being among the Muslims.
This document contains summaries of passages from the Quran presented by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail. The passages discuss topics such as the impermanence of this world, patience in the face of adversity, calling others to Allah, treating others with justice and kindness, forgiving others, and establishing Islam as a justly balanced community to bear witness to the truth. The document provides guidance on living according to Islamic principles through examples from the Quran and hadiths.
This document provides excerpts from Islamic religious texts and teachings about the importance of knowledge and scholarship. It emphasizes seeking knowledge through proper Islamic scholarship. Several passages highlight the obligation of Muslims to learn, the importance of respecting and learning from scholars, and avoiding acquiring knowledge from unqualified sources who may provide misleading rulings. The document stresses pursuing knowledge with detachment from worldly desires in order to gain closeness to God.
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.
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 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.
