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 definition and basis of muḥāsabah: The session defines muḥāsabah as evaluating the actions and behaviour of the nafs, then rectifying mistakes and continuing good deeds. Qur’an 59:18 anchors the lesson, with ʿUmar b. al-Khaṭṭāb رضي الله عنه quoted on holding oneself to account before the Day of Reckoning.
• How to treat the nafs: Learners are introduced to tazkiyat al-nafs and the principle that the nafs must be treated strictly, corrected when it errs, and encouraged when it inclines towards obedience. Ibn al-Jawzī’s approach of speaking directly to one’s nafs is referenced, alongside the statement of ʿĀmir b. ʿAbd Qays رحمه الله on the Companions and the link between self-accountability and pure īmān.
• How to perform muḥāsabah: The session presents a practical framework: fixing a time, preparing a personal checklist, and working through four areas in order farḍ deeds, forbidden acts, heedlessness, and intentions.
• Self-reflection questions: Learners are given a set of honest questions to apply to their own deeds, including whether an act was done sincerely for Allah, whether khushūʿ was present in ṣalāh, whether a lesser good deed was used to justify neglecting a greater one, and how screen time is being spent.
• The consequence of neglecting muḥāsabah: Qur’an 59:19 is quoted on those who forgot Allah or were made to forget themselves, and the lesson draws out why muḥāsabah carries particular weight for ṭullāb al-ʿilm and those active in daʿwah.

The post Muhasabah appeared first on Quranic Tarbiyah.

The sailors decide someone must jump into the sea to save the rest. They pick names. Yunus عليه السلام comes up again, and again, and again. They refuse to throw him, they know he is a blessed man. But Yunus عليه السلام sees this as a sign from Allah, and he jumps. A whale swallows him. The dark night. The dark sea. The darkness of the whale’s belly. No way out.

In that total darkness, Yunus عليه السلام turns to Allah and prays: “There is no god but You; how Perfect are You! I was indeed wrong!” Allah, The Most Kind, accepts his duʿa. He orders the whale to spit him out onto the shore. When Yunus عليه السلام recovers, Allah sends him back to guide his people. They believe. Allah gives them peaceful, happy lives.

Yunus عليه السلام calls his people to worship Allah alone. He reminds them that Allah is the Creator of the heavens and the earth and everything within them. They laugh. Some call him a magician. They don’t listen. They don’t care. He tries and tries, until one day he gives up and leaves the city but not before warning them of Allah’s punishment.

Then the sky turns dark. The people tremble. They remember what Yunus عليه السلام said, and this time they believe it. They rush outside, raise their hands, and beg Allah to forgive them. They promise to worship Allah alone and do good. Allah, The Most Kind, forgives them and clears the sky. Then they ask for their Prophet to come back.

• Emphasises starting preparation now, both spiritually and physically, to make this Ramadan the best

Three Virtues of Shaʿban

• Discovers how our beloved Prophet ﷺ fasted in Shaʿban more than any other month, as narrated by ʿA’ishah (radiy Allahu ʿanha)
• Learns that actions are raised to Allah daily (morning and evening), weekly (Monday and Thursday), and annually in Shaʿban, and that the Prophet ﷺ liked for his annual performance review to correspond with him being in a state of fasting
• Explores how Allah looks down on the middle night of Shaʿban and forgives all of His creation, except anyone who commits shirk or harbours hatred
