Through His Help, we were enabled to complete the Nasirat Activity Book. This project was supervised by National Sadr Lajna Ima‘illah USA, who provided encouragement and special prayers for its success. The National Nasiratul Ahmadiyya USA are indebted to the team members who were committed to completing this monumental task. They are gratefully acknowledged and appreciated. The following team members helped in various ways: Taleem Section: We thank Amna Anwar Sahiba from the GA/SC chapter for completing the 7-9 years syllabus, Rabia Anwar Sahiba from the GA/SC chapter for completing the 10-12 years syllabus, and Attiya Ghani Sahiba from the GA/SC chapter for completing the 13-14 years syllabus. Tarbiyyat Section: We thank Qudoos Bhatti Sahiba from the GA/SC chapter and Kuratul Ain Abaidullah from the Philadelphia chapter for design and completing this section. Planning, Editing, and Program-writing: We thank our Jaziba Bahri from the GA/SC chapter. Front Cover and Illustrations and Drawings throughout the book: We thank Nasirah Amatul Baqi Bahri from the GA/SC chapter. Back Cover Illustration: We thank Nasirah Asiya Khan from the GA/SC chapter. Layout: We thank Rabia Anwar from the GA/SC chapter. Book Graphic Design Layout: We thank Sabahat Pall from the GA/SC chapter. Thanks must also be extended to National Lajna Isha‘at Department USA, along with their teams for the publication of this workbook. This is our hope and we pray to Allah Almighty that the Taleem and Tarbiyyat Syllabus will be beneficial for our Nasirat members. Sincerely, Nurjamilah Bahri National Nasirat Secretary Hudhur‟s Message for Nasirat (excerpt from Hudhur‟s Address to Lajna during Jalsa Salana 2008) ―Similarly Nasirat repeat the pledge that they shall always keep themselves ready to serve Islam, their nation and their country and shall always adhere to truth. Nasirat should not think that they are little girls and their responsibilities are less than those of Lajna. Although you are young in age, the same responsibilities of Lajna are going to be vested in you.‖ Based on Hudhur‘s message, we would like to encourage local Nasirat secretaries to have their own secretaries who are old enough to assist the Nasirat secretary, with the approval of the local Sadr. This is further supported by Line 109 in the Lajna Constitution, which states that ―Secretary Nasirat shall make an Amila team of Nasiratul-Ahmadiyya‖. There should be at minimum a secretary of finance, Tarbiyyat, Taleem, Tajneed, and physical health. Welcome Message Dear Nasirat and Nasirat Secretaries, Assalaamo Alaikum Wa Rehmatullahi Wa Barakatahu. We would like to welcome you all to our new Nasirat Program. What you hold in your hands is the Nasirat workbook for the next two years, 2019- 2021. The Nasirat program is designed to provide girls ages 7-15 with the opportunity to develop and improve their religious knowledge (Taleem) and moral training (Tarbiyyat), while simultaneously allowing for the growth of personal and social skills. Unlike previous workbooks, this is slightly different due to the national publication of Tahir Academy Workbooks. The Tahir Academy workbooks are a comprehensive guide which cover exactly what would have been in your Nasirat workbook. The Tahir Academy workbooks are divided into six levels based on your age. They are all available online at the Tahir Academy website and hard copies will also be available to purchase: http://www.tahiracademy.org/ The Nasirat team prays that you will find this Nasirat Activity book a great tool in laying the foundation for your journey over the next few years.

  • Make This Your Best Ramadan Yet! in the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
    A DAILY PLANNER AND GUIDE FOR ALL AGES! 3655 Wheeler Ave Alexandria, VA 22304 IRUSA.ORG 1-855-447-1001 Tax ID# 95-4453134 Make this your best Ramadan yet! in the name of allah, the most gracious, the most merciful All thanks and praise is due to Allah alone, the Lord of the Worlds. We praise Him, seek refuge with Him, and seek His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allah from the evils of our souls, and the mistakes in our actions. Whomever Allah Guides, there is none who can misguide him, and whoever Allah misguides, there is none who can guide him. Verily, there is none worthy of being worshipped except Allah, and Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is His servant and Messenger. Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) reminds us in the Qur’an that the month of Ramadan contains limited precious days — with an extraordinary opportunity to reach out and connect to Him. He tells us of this powerfully, All the actions of people are for them, except for fasting. Fasting is for Me and it is I who rewards it. Hence the purpose of this month is Allah — and Allah (swt) alone. Fasting is a means to attain nearness to Him. Keeping this in mind, we must make the most of these days. The best way to take advantage of Ramadan is to develop a Ramadan action plan — because a failure to plan is a plan for failure. If you don’t set goals, it gets difficult to measure yourself and assess the current state of your worship.

  • At - Taqwā July - September 2014
    At - Taqwā July - September 2014 The Month of Ramadhãn By Mawlãnã Muhammad Ali Mankda Let us imagine the extent of the desire of the Prophet s to meet Allāh S and also the great insight the Prophet s had regarding the bounties of the Hereafter; He had already seen Jannah and was bestowed with the honour of seeing and communicating with Allāh S. Yet, despite this great longing and desire, upon the advent of Rajab the Prophet s would make the following duā desiring to remain in this world until Ramadhān: ِ ِ ِّ اللُّه َّم بَارْك لَنَا ف ْي َرَج َب َو َشْعبَا َن َو بَ لغْنَا َرَم َضا َن O Allāh, make the month of Rajab and Sha‟bān blessed for us, and let us reach the month of Ramadhān. (At Tabrānī) From this we understand the extraordinary nature of Ramadhān, for it is so great that the Prophet s would supplicate for the prolongation of his worldly life so that he could take advantage of this great month and all its blessings. The great scholar and reformer Shaykh Ahmad Farūqi v (Mujaddid Alf Thāni) said, “If we combine all the blessings of the other eleven months, they would not add up to the blessings of Ramadhān.” Ahādith on the merits and virtues of this month are well known. For example, “The month of Ramadhān, the month of blessing has come to you, wherein Allāh turns towards you and sends down on you His special Mercy, forgives your faults, accepts prayers, observes your competition for doing good deeds and boasts to the angels about you.

After the Bogor Declaration on Muslim Action on Climate Change 2010, in 2011, The Indonesia Council of Ulama (MUI) established the Institute for Environmental and Natural Resources (PLHSDA) in the MUI’s Clerical Conference. The role of this unit within the MUI is very important because the MUI has a special unit in tackling various important issues in the environment, where Muslims can find authoritative answers to environmental challenges. So far, there have been seven MUI fatawa¯ (edicts) released by MUI related to the environment and the conservation movement. This paper will highlight environmental movements by the Muslim community in Indonesia, and describe how the implementation of the MUI fatawa¯ can contribute to addressing the massive increase in environmental challenges and increase the involvement and understanding of the Muslim communities in tackling biodiversity conservation as well as climate change.
