This lesson covers,

• The salam and its meaning are revisited from the previous lesson, with learners asked to identify who receives the greeting, why we feel shy or grateful after salah ends, and what it means to have just stood before Allah.
• Seeking forgiveness immediately after salah is explored through the practice of our beloved Prophet ﷺ, with the lesson asking learners to reflect on why istighfar follows salah rather than celebration.
• Two adhkar after salah taught in full: the declaration of tawhid from Sahih al-Bukhari affirming Allah’s sole sovereignty, praise, and power, and the duʿa from Abu Dawud asking Allah for help in dhikr, gratitude, and excellence in worship.
• The adhkar of sajdah is presented in Arabic with a paired translation activity, in which learners declare that their face has prostrated to the One who created and shaped it, and split its hearing and sight, closing with praise of Allah as the best of creators.
• A full summary activity draws together all six lessons, from preparation and wudu through to tashahhud, duʿa, and salam, with learners producing an infographic, mind-map, or poster covering every posture and its spiritual meaning.

This lesson covers,

• Sujud explained as the greatest pillar of salah, grounded in Surah al-ʿAlaq (96:19), with learners asked to reflect on how it embodies complete servitude, why duʿa is accepted in this posture, and why the body should settle and not rush.
• The duʿa between the two sajdahs is presented in Arabic with translation, رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي رَبِّ اغْفِرْ لِي, with the lesson making clear this short repeated plea is not a formality but a moment of sincere request for forgiveness between two acts of prostration.
• The tashahhud covered word by word, with al-tahiyyat, al-salawat, and al-tayyibat defined, the salam upon the Prophet ﷺ and the righteous servants explained, and the shahada placed at the heart of this closing declaration of salah.
• The salawat on the Prophet ﷺ is taught with vocabulary, giving learners the meaning behind the words they send upon our beloved Prophet ﷺ at the end of every prayer.
• Two duʿas after tashahhud are covered: the confession of wrongdoing asking Allah al-Ghafur al-Rahim for forgiveness from Himself, and the duʿa from Sahih Muslim seeking protection from the punishment of the fire, the grave, the trials of life and death, and the trial of al-Masih al-Dajjal.

The post Y9 Lesson 5 Sujud-Dua After Tashahhud appeared first on Quranic Tarbiyah.

The lesson opens with a reassuring reminder from the Qur’an: “Allah wants to make things easy for you; humans were created weak” (Surah an-Nisa: verse 28). Even the blessed Companions of our beloved Prophet ﷺ made mistakes in their salah, what made them great was that they always turned back to Allah and sought to put things right. Building on this spirit of humility and accountability, learners discover that our beloved Prophet ﷺ taught us a merciful solution, if we miss an action, add an extra action, or feel uncertain during salah, we can perform two extra sajdahs, known as sajdah as-sahw.

The lesson explains the two situations in which sajdah as-sahw is performed, before the final salam, when a sunnah action has been missed, and after the final salam, when an extra action has been added. Learners also explore what to do when doubt arises during salah, as well as the important distinction between fard, sunnah, and mustahabb actions, and how each type of mistake is addressed.

The lesson opens with as-salah al-Ibrahimiyyah a deeply moving duʿa in which the believer asks Allah to shower blessings upon our beloved Prophet ﷺ and his family, just as He blessed the Prophet Ibrahim and his family. Learners are invited to pause and reflect on how much the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ sacrificed and worried for this Ummah, and to send their greetings to him with love and gratitude in their hearts. They also discover the remarkable fact that when salawat is sent, an angel personally delivers that greeting to the Prophet ﷺ and that by praying for the Prophet ﷺ, one is also making duʿa for oneself.

Learners then explore the duʿa before salam, in which they seek Allah’s protection from the punishment of the Fire, the punishment of the grave, the trials of life and death, and the trial of al-Masih ad-Dajjal. The lesson concludes with guidance on the salam and the importance of the adhkar after salah, pausing, reflecting, and seeking Allah’s forgiveness before returning to daily life.

Session 3: Heaven & Hell

• Opens with imagine your outcome starter activity, writing on post-it notes how one would feel hearing either the announcement of entry into Jannah with eternal peace and bliss, or condemnation to Hell-fire with no escape or relief
• Explores the shiver-inducing verse where Allah asks Hell if it is full yet and it responds asking if there are any more, understanding that Hell will become full yet there will always be room for more as current people get squashed and constricted further, and that Hell is so huge that despite huge numbers entering, there will be room for more
• Reflects on the contrast with the pleasant, calm, and friendly scene where Paradise will be brought near (uzlifat) to the righteous, showing honour with every word as Paradise is brought near so they don’t have to trouble themselves by going to it
• Discovers the people of Paradise through four characteristics: awwab (the one who constantly returns to his Lord and always repents to Allah), hafiz (protector who guards eyes, ears, and all senses from anything haram and from crossing Allah’s boundaries), who were in awe of the Most Compassionate without seeing Him (khashyah equals fear plus glorification), and have come with a heart turning only to Him (qalb munib, a sincere heart that is always turning to Allah and remembers its sins in private whilst seeking repentance)
• Reflects on feeling unworthy of Jannah because of sins, and how these verses shift one’s perspective on the characteristics of the people of Jannah
• Understands repentance and the heart through noticing that Allah mentions the people of Jannah starting with repentance (awwab) and ending with repentance (munib), that every act of worship has an outer and inner aspect, and that focusing on the inner allows the outer to follow in course
• Explores the profound goal of reaching the level of inabah, which consists of repeatedly turning to Allah with love and humility whilst turning away from other than Him
• Engages in write a letter activity, thinking of a recent sin and writing a letter to Allah begging forgiveness by acknowledging one’s lowly status, begging, promising to try one’s best never to return to the sin, and asking Allah to help one stay away from it
• Reflects on how the activity made one feel, what stops one from turning to Allah in repentance, and what steps can be taken to ensure one is always turning to Allah and focused on Him
• Discovers the best welcome where people of Jannah will enter in peace (salam) on the Day of eternal life (yawm al-khulud), understanding that salam has two meanings (peace and greetings) with both intended, that salam and eternal peace and serenity is the ultimate goal, and that this dunya is not a place of peace, whilst the best greeting will insha’Allah be “Salam, a word from the Most Merciful Lord”
• Explores everything you’ve ever wished through understanding there are two types of naim in Jannah (physical and spiritual), and that with Allah is even more (mazid)
• Contemplates what ‘more’ refers to, understanding it is the gift of seeing Allah, and that the greatest joy a believer will enjoy in the hereafter will be the joy of seeing Allah and meeting Him, an experience no words can describe, and that when people of Jannah see Allah with their very own eyes they will forget all previous blessings given to them in Paradise
• Creates your Jannah vision, understanding that the Companions felt like the hereafter was very real which motivated them and kept them on track, and that as humans we need a reminder of Jannah to motivate us, drawing or describing ideal Jannah whilst engaging all senses
• Learns using your Jannah vision by understanding that Allah gives tribulations and trials to help us wake up and turn to Him out of His mercy as He wants eternal happiness and bliss for us, and that next time facing a trial one should take out the vision board, wear akhirah glasses to shift perspective, refocus on the goal, and take action by identifying steps needed to stay on the right path (patience, dua, steadfastness, repentance)

Perfect for adult learners in Islamic study circles, community programmes, and Ramadan preparations, this presentation nurtures hearts through authentic Quranic tarbiyah rooted in the values of love, pure heart, and servitude.
