This document provides an introduction to a course on 'Ilm al-Akhlaq taught by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail. The course uses a curriculum developed for Muslim converts and young English-speaking Muslims. It will cover topics like Tauheed, Fiqh, and Akhlaq/Tasawwuf over 18 weekly classes held on Wednesday nights. The introduction discusses the importance of seeking knowledge and developing good character according to Islamic principles.
This document provides an introduction to a beginner's course on Islam taught in English by Ustaz Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail. It discusses the importance of seeking knowledge, which is obligatory for all Muslims. It also outlines the Tauhidic paradigm of three aspects of Islamic studies: 'Ilm Tauheed (creed), 'Ilm Fiqh (practical laws), and 'Ilm Akhlaq/Tasawwuf/Irfan (human disposition/Sufism). The document emphasizes that knowledge acquisition for Muslims should involve deep contemplation and continually uncovering new meanings from what is learned.
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.
This document discusses the importance of following a madhhab, or Islamic school of jurisprudence, and seeking knowledge from scholars. It provides several Quranic verses and hadith that emphasize obeying authority figures, asking scholars about matters one does not understand, and deriving rulings through consultation and consensus rather than one person's opinion. The document stresses that Muslims should rely on the decisions of jurists from a recognized madhhab through taqlid, or imitation, and differences between madhhabs should be respected.

The document is a lesson plan from an Islamic studies course being conducted in English for adult Muslims. It covers various topics related to Islamic ethics and morality, including the meaning of taqwa (piety, fear of Allah), levels of faith, obedience to Allah and resisting worldly temptations. Verses from the Quran and sayings of Prophet Muhammad are presented, with explanations focusing on developing good character and attaining God-consciousness. The lesson emphasizes that true success comes from purifying the soul and perfecting oneself according to Islamic teachings.
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.
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 provides an introduction to a course on 'Ilm al-Akhlaq (the study of ethics) aimed at Muslim converts and young English-speaking Muslims. It emphasizes the importance of seeking knowledge and acting upon what is learned from the Quran and hadith. It discusses proper preparation for learning, including having the right intentions and following the example of the Prophet Muhammad.
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.

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.
